GeorgeH Posted June 14 Report Posted June 14 I suspect this is the infamous “Stradivarius in the Basement” that was discussed and promoted ad infinitum by the poster “TK1” several years ago. He eventually sued several prominent dealers and people in the violin world essentially for refusing to certify it as a genuine Stradivarius and other perceived slights against him and his violin. He lost that lawsuit decisively.
Stephen Fine Posted June 14 Report Posted June 14 I'd forgotten about that... crazy that at the end he just doubles down asking "what is really real?" and saying "if people believe something, it's true." Feels a bit like the Zeitgeist now.
