Wonder if he made up the purchase story of how he acquired it? for all we know Steve could have done a stick up in a guitar shop when high on Vicodin

“With me so far?” Fuck off. Notice how the guy spent over $1k originally, and then even more money to “fix” it, but STeVe makes it a point that he spent even less than the original purchase was? Basically proud that he was able to see a guy lose money. Did the money STeVe saved go towards his website forum? Yeah, didn’t think so. I love the attitude of “it’s not what I wanted but I settled” and now it’s the best thing ever. Kind of like those cheap ass guitars he was hawking a year or two ago - great to learn on, will play all the time. Etc. and then was like “they good for you but I sent mine back.”

His self-image is just not about fortune, it's about privilege and entitlement. That's what happens to some wealthy people. He regards himself as extremely lucky, which is being favored by Fortune, aka God, for being such a good person. He gets a piano with the house, it turns out to be a rare minty Baldwin. He buys a mint Tele, he gets something that's worth three times the purchase price, etc.
I guess he could pay for the forum costs without much financial issue for him, but he feels better if people love him so much that they've sent donations to cover the costs. For him, the ultimate mark of success is that he doesn't have to pay.

I did a quick google and can find no references to a "Audiophile style five-way pickup selector" the crazy bastard just fabricated a type of guitar switch.
(Somebody needs to open a thread about finding the best audiophile style five way pickup selector for a guitar ! !) lmaoooooo
it seems Steve falling back to using his old DCC marketing gimmick of AUDIOPHILE approved, etc

Now the real question STeVE failed to address is this: just what does a withered 80 year old man need with an electric guitar anyway? What is he going to do? Start a band with his buddies? Watch it, pal. John Oteri plays a mean djembe.

Be it music, photography or guitars, there’s always a bunch of snake oil bullshit out there for idiots to spend money on.

THE KINKS "Waterloo Sunset" stereo mix version. Neat surround sound effects!I pulled out a CDR from my old DCC stash and was playing our unreleased "The Kinks 24 Karat Hits" Gold CD mastering (that was never issued due to legal reasons). My downstairs system is temporarily set up in the big living room (for my upcoming review of the Finnish Penaudio Serenade speakers which throw an amazing soundstage) and when WATERLOO SUNSET came on, WOW! I'm sure it was a happy accident but the background vocals are floating in space right behind me. Same for AFTERNOON TEA though not as great. They simply (by mistake I'm sure) mixed the stereo versions with some of the overdub channels out of phase with the rhythm track channel and lead vocal channel. Since the piano was on a separate track as well, this probably happened during one of the reduction mix stages and is "built in" to the mix when the channels are separated. It's a neat effect. Try it. Make sure your speakers are in a position to reproduce out of phase information optimally. Is The Kinks Greatest Hits (Ugly Pink) still the best compilation of 60's Kinks?Other than the unreleased The Kinks 24 Karat Hits gold CD, yes. @steve Hoffman, if you have the time, could you post the tracklist of the unreleased gold CD? Would love to know what it would have included... I don’t have that paperwork anymore, sorry. It had the usual suspects on it.
