> Confession: I've been playing since I was 16 years old, and I didn't buy a new guitar (an acoustic) until I was over 30 years old. There was no need to.

When I started playing guitar, and took it seriously, my teachers always insisted to buy up and used, instead of something you can afford new. Now, with the salary of a software engineer, I still do it today.

When no one will buy a new car they have blowout sales on the lot. Perhaps that's what we're trying to force, here :) Sadly it doesn't work that way.
