I feel that! We do have one thing working for us though. If you buy a used guitar for a decent price your almost guaranteed to make that money back or more when you sell it. Thanks to that iv gotten to own a hell of a lot of different gear

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?

You sir are lucky. But to call some of the most talented musicians of our time widdlers is a bit harsh.
