I saw this post and I thought I would throw my two pennies on the table. Who really cares what kind of guitar, # of strings, amp, effects, etc a musician uses????? Music is music....We all take something from it and it is all together a beautiful thing! Whether it be from listening to Vai or Malmsteen playing 128th notes or Korn (which I like a lot) playing heavy, basic, grooving type rhythms and effect ridden "noises"...It is all the same and it doesn't make either the most of technical of players or the basic groove players any better than the others! They are just different as are every person who visits/comments/supports/participates in this forum. I am tired of people bashing one type of music because they are not into it. If you are that closed minded about music maybe you shouldn't be a "musician". And I am sure I am opening a can of worms by typing this but I had to give my opinion for once(which I rarely do on this forum). Well, my rant is done and I hope that I got across nothing less than people should be a little more tolerant and think a little more before they throw their ignorant opinions down on some forum. Thanks <Steps down from soapbox>
