FORGET YOUR GUITAR (AND AMP), THEY DON'T MATTER AT ALL. This cork sniffing guitar nerd shit about having boutique guitars made with swamp ash from the Kentucky bogs and Koa from the Hawaiian hills is utter bullshit. None of this matters. Tone is in the fingers. Period. Find what you like, even if it's a $100 Mexican strat, stick with it, and don't be swayed by the marketing machines.
