Well, a part of me says gear really matters but then, behind my mind someone whispers, I need more practice. In the end, I'm still gassing for a jazzmaster.

on the other side, signature series guitars are lame.  :lol:

Subscribed muna. Blocked and Youtube sa office, mabagal ang Internet data sa phone, kaya sa bahay ko na lang panonoorin.

It probably matters less than we think, but the things about a guitar that make us buy and keep it, and sit with it and noodle on it for hours, isn't always about tone. There's a toy-like quality about a guitar, why we love quilted tops, or a shell-pink finish, the shape of it, the aesthetic of it. There's history, there's story, the music that was built on it, the personalities involved with it. Maybe the word gear is somehow a bit impersonal, like it was a hand drill- guitars can be an intensely personal thing. So there's a touchy thing there, that when the question is asked, 'does gear matter?, it becomes an invasion of someone's personal journey into an attachment to the instrument.

"Does gear matter?"
Matter to what? Di complete ang statement ng question eh.

Does gear matter in playing (insert particular song)?
Does gear matter in playing (insert genre)?
Does gear matter in giving musical lectures?
Does gear matter in live variety performances in open air venues?
Does gear matter in the recording of an SRV-type blues band?
...
Etc.

Then it's easier to answer the question.
