I used to be of the opinion that musicians can use all different kinds of equipment to get some great sounds. Sometimes the pricier stuff does the job better, but there are places for gear that isn't "boutique", "vintage" etc...the musician is what it really comes down to.
I usually thought of Josh Homme as a good example of someone who used what I thought was a cheap Korean guitar to make some really great songs. But that GP turns out to be assembled in the US and was a guitar that Ovation did work hard on. He also uses a Univox super fuzz and some other pricier gear...
As the years go on, I seem to just find that just about every guitarists tone I really enjoy seems to be using quite pricey gear. It just seems like music is more exclusive in this sense than I had previously believed.
