Speaking for myself, I dont have high demands.
I am a fan of 'the song' more than anything and whilst appreciative of good guitar playing I see guitar playing as an enjoyable means to an end rather than the sole end in itself.
I'm not a tone obsessive and my technical ability doesnt and will never justify an expensive custom guitar. Punk is the reason I picked up a guitar in the first place and it still resonates with me 20 years later. What someone like Billy Childish or Tom Waits or whoever can achieve with limited and basic instrumentation has always moved me more than the awful widdlers like Via, Satriani, Petrucci, or dinosaur bores like Clapton.
Different strokes for different folks isnt it?
