However when dealing with electric or acoustic musical instruments there is probably still a difference between recording in your garage and recording in Abbey Road's Studio two !
Some but not much, yes access to better and varied equipment will make a recording sound more polished, but most of what it takes to make a good recording is knowledge. mic position, controlling room ambiance, proper mixing technique, and so on. You could easily make a record with equal or maybe even better production quality than Sgt Peppers in your basement, but you would probably struggle to match some of the more recent classics, Mellon Collie, Lateralus, Kid A, but a patient knowledgeable person could probably match those given enough time and perseverance .
