Yeah, well, lucky fuckin' you. I didn't know anyone that could afford 
one Martin or one Gibson when I started playing, so that straight up 
wasn't an option. I made do with Harmony's and Cort's until I started 
making enough money to buy some high-quality instruments.

My point still stands: if someone really wants to play an instrument, 
they'll play whatever they can get their hands on, be it cheap or good.
