I learned from my guitar teacher to never blame the equipment. I blamed my guitar. He walked in the other room, grabbed one of those hello kitty guitars, and played it better than I have ever been able to play mine.

[@twinkletoes5209]

i blamed the equipment when my amp stopped working😭

[@gwoody4003]

Its a good part due to equipment though. My first guitar was an $80 Crate Stratocaster clone at a pawn shop. One from those beginner sets that come with the amp and case and everything. It wouldn't stay in tune, the pickups were weak AF, there was no sustain and a lot of dissonance playing chords. When I got decent enough to get a new, better guitar, it was like I was 5x better, just cus the action was so smooth and it stayed in tune. Lol Acoustic guitars are especially subject to this. My sister has a no-brand dreadnought the guitar shop puts together from kits, and I can't play it. I gotta press real hard to get a solid note, and all the high notes just clink. And the B string will not go in tune at all. The 12th frets are way off from open strings. Its no surprse she gave up learning. My old Washburn is 100x better and still has its issues. And when I play my buddie's Martin, its like butter. Its a conundrum cus you don't wanna buy your kid a $1000 instrument when they could give up right away anyways. But I don't doubt there are many new players who get a piece of junk guitar and give up cus the guitar won't sound right.

Consider myself halfway decent on strings....my daughters Hello Kitty guitar is by far one of the worst instruments I've ever played. When tuned at open, none of the frets were actually in tune, especially the first 5 frets. Exactly what I'd expect a $30 acoustic guitar to sound like.
