It amuses me as well, especially since I sometimes enjoy the sound of the “low end” products more than the “high end” products. I’m sure I would enjoy having high end guitars and gear as much as most anyone else here, but the obsession with that type of thing is a little ridiculous. And there is definitely no excuse for the bashing of people that don’t buy the pedals or amps that are currently trending.
I don’t have a lot of experience with really nice guitars, but I really enjoy the two cheap ones I currently own!
