Да, что такое corksniffer?)
Are you a Gear Corksniffer?
By "Gear Corksniffer", I mean someone who is really picky with all the aspects of their gear; cables, strings, pedals, amps, guitars, etc, and who buys the higher end of any category of gear.
Myself, I am getting slightly more into corksniffing, but only to some degree. I seem to be known as "the guy with all the crappy guitars but who makes them sound good", or something.
I am slowly buying more expensive stuff, at a pace I can afford to. Why? Well, playing guitar is my big love! Why not spend money on your love? Not that I need to in order to get good tone. I will still sound like me regardless, but buying gear is a life long journey I think. It's buying part and trying-new-stuff-part that is the fun!
I also am not one of those who need a $4000 amp and a $4000 guitar in order to play a blues. I know of musicians who blind-test different lengths of guitar cables to find what length is the optimal length. I'm not going that far.
I have now a mix of lower quality stuff and some higher end stuff. It kind of makes sense to have good parts, all the way from guitar to amp. I have lots of cheap pedals, and some of the affect the tone a bit, but generally not too much. I'll probably end up getting all quality pedals all the way some day, but it won't happen right away.
Looking at members' signatures, one gets an idea where most people are on the "corksniffing scale", but let's hear what you have to say about it.
