He had a Fender Maverick under the Coronados. He must be independently wealth to afford all that.

you guys really need to come visit me/mez/hilary
and i will take you to HOG

hog doesn't have 50 corronados but its got more and better shit than this guy.

ask anyone i have taken there from the board. the only place that i have ever been to that rivals it is CME. they have less shit but its one big open room and you can see everything easier.

cme has this.

HOG probably has it too but i cant see it because its way up on top of a 20 foot case with 23 other fenders in front of it

Don't tease me, Robroe. I love those Fender Starcasters and Coronados. The cock stock is the cock of the walk!

Yet we never see him play any of them...

To me it's kind of a sin to hold on to so many guitars like that, they could be out being used by musicans that make great music. Instead they are just sitting there hanging.

If I was a super rich I'd be doing the same thing but the difference is I would be playing the shit out of them constantly with a stupid grin on my face.
