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.

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.
