You've got a number of options. First you can email musiciansfriend.com and see if they still have some stored up in their werehouse. You can call up some of your local music shops to see if they happen to have one in stock/storage. You can go down to Guitar Center (if you have one in your area) and have them do a nationwide search through the inventories of all their stores to see if they have one at one of their stores and have it shipped to your GC. If GC doesn't have one, you can have the employee write a letter to Fender directly to see if Fender still happens to have some that were never distributed.

Good luck, hope you are able to find one!

I dont know your location is but in the UK they seem to be selling cheap on ebay recently.
Not many US models about though.

I got a blue one with the white racing stripes on ebay for $400. If you look on ebay right now, theres a red one starting at $199...

And let me tell you, it is worth every last penny, i love and cherish my toro :D

Best of luck to you

I got one of the last ones from MF a year or so ago.

There are no more.

I ordered a blem that arrived so destroyed that they sent me a new A-stock replacement for the the same price, $287 after some discounts. A week or so later I saw an absolutely mint used blue one at my local Guitar Center marked $299.99.

It's one of the bronze ones. It's kind of heavy (nominal "mahogany" body, more probably nato) and the stripes take a bit of getting used to. It's well-made, but the US Seymour Duncans ('59 RP and Pearly Gates+) don't sound that great to me on this particular instrument, having a marked "nasal" tone in lead position. Neck position's fine.
