Hello!

He shows very little respect for his collection in this clip

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rEvRDC-mGmg

Yes, he can play
No, I don't like him

Enjoy

Andy

wow, thats really one way to relic your guitars.
:x , really upsets me that he treats his 1954 strat like that.

i feel like a museum curator, seeing picasso mistreat one of dali's works.

i agree, also dont like him.

Yeah, he is just tossing the guitars around like they are nothing, and scalloped some of the older ones. He shows no respect for them.

And when the dude asked him "How does the '54 sound?" His response is, "Well not like mine, I haven't done anything to it- it's original..." As if his sounds better... What a d-bag!

Well, when you're rich, you can do anything you want I guess... Sad. :roll:

Its the internet, its for expressing opinions.

when you criticize someones opinion you show that you have zero respect for other peoples thoughts and views.

No problemo, not a question of quantity :wink:
But I do have his Tribute Strat as I think it's the epitome of the CS relicing art.

LOL!!

Nice work people!

Each to their own. He is without question a tallented musician and composer whether you like his music or not . I 've also read that he started out as a guitar tech repairing strats etc.

Its his attitude I personally dislike, but this is only based on clips and interviews i've seen (most of which make him out to be a complete egotistical tool of a man! IMO).

If I met him in person i would show due respect, same as any other tallented musician I encounter (not sure if i could resist having a dig about the pile butched vintage strats though....but i'd do it with respect!!!).

Enjoy!

Andy

I don't like him either. His playing is just soulless, but he can treat his property any way he wants. He owns it. :wink:

I met him once back in the early 80's when he was playing for a local LAband called Steeler. After a show I complimented him on his playing (which was very "cutting edge new" at the time. His response was something along the lines of "yeah I know I'm great".
I then advised him that he was also an arrogant $@!&# and left it at that.

Very good at what he does but . . . .

That guy is such a fail!! Treating so many expensive guitars like that is simply appalling! :x :x :x :x :x

He needs to grow a brain and figure out how to treat his guitars, either that or give them to someone who actually knows how to treat them!

I apologize for sounding so harsh, but that is just such a stupid thing to do! :x
