Do you really need the best gear? Are you a performing musician, gigging regularly, and making a profit from your musical journey? If so, get the best gear, best pedals, best cables, guitar and amp you can. If you are at an earlier point in your journey, you do not need "the best" of anything? The best . . . is subjective. And spending a lot of money on gear, instead of developing your skills is not needed. "THE BEST PLAYERS" - performing musicians need the best gear. If you're not a highly skilled player yet, consider spending your money on a good instructor. Learn your instrument. Learn your craft. And build up your gear as you learn. At one point, some point along the way, you'll begin to understand more about the differences between decent gear, and really good gear. You'll know the difference. And your craft will pay for your upgrades as you learn exactly what it is in any piece of gear that you don't like, are missing, or want to improve. IMHO, of course. But I've been gigging since 1966. 77 and still gigging. There ya have it! As always, stay safe! Wayne PS: Hope you found this interesting. If you did, please feel welcome to drop me a line.
