Unreal!
I think some people are more interested in buying and talking about guitar gear than playing it. I guess that might be a hobby in itself, but that's not for me - I want to play the stuff!....
I think Robert has it pegged right. I'd wager that a lot of the guys you run into online care more about what they have instead of being a decent player. It's ok to be starting out with either really great equipment or even inexpensive great equipment....as long as you can back up your words with action baybey! I'm glad none of you guys in this forum are posers.
