Whats Up Party People, in honor of it being Tuesday, which I am officially renaming "Toronado Tuesday," here's a little peek at the 2021 Squier Paranormal Series Toronado.

The guitar gods have smiled on me and I managed to procure one early thanks to my contact Joe Ravita over at Empire Music in Pittsburgh.

I love my 2020 Toronado so much that I bought one of each color from this year! Specs appear to be the same between the 2021 and 2020 models.

For 2021's model though, it feels like the pickups sound a bit warmer than last year. Let me know what you think!
