I think you're looking for support in the wrong place...unless you KNOW we're a bunch of "enablers" here.
Even me, a guy that has a You Tube channel about doing "the most music with the least gear" bought a guitar this week (hangs his head in shame). An S2 Mira semi-hollow in limited gold from the good people at Chuck Levin's down in MD.
Ok, Ok, I bough two Miras this week! But the core from 2008 had 57/08's in it! It's not my fault....
