Got to learn to listen THROUGH the gear, when you evaluating the man...

The playing was exceptional. The 'sound' was a bit suspect...

The reverse is also true (but harder to achieve!). When listening to gear, you have to try to ignore a really bad presenter, or a really good one, for that matter bow and try to simply listen to the gear, and think what YOU might be able to achieve with it.

Lord knows how much money so many of us might have saved, had we done these!
