I saw a sadly accurate example of the Nationality Snob in a review of a bass once. It was along the lines of, "This bass was incredible, it felt great to play, the finish was flawless, the sound was amazing. I would have given it 5 stars but then I discovered it was made in Indonesia, so I've knocked it down to 4."

When I bought my Telecaster, I had an American and a Mexican that my choice was between. I had the guitar store employee help me out in a blind test to see which I liked more. I closed my eyes and tried both guitars, and the Mexican one had a better feel and sound, so I bought it instead. I would have spent a grand for the American one that I didn't like as much, opposed to $700 for what is still my favourite guitar.

I had to learn their album from start to finish then at the first gig i played with them the ex guitarist showed up, found himself a spot directly infront of me and carefully analysed my playing all night. Whist i was having my post show beer he approached me and started correcting any riff I played even slightly incorrectly and interrogated me based on my choice of guitar. When we were in the process of writing a follow up album he kept texting the band to offer to write songs, as if I didn't know how to write a fucking metalcore song.

I've experienced #5. Years ago I was picking up my '93 Fender MIM Strat from a music shop after having some work done. The Luthier brought my guitar out from the back room and went over his work while a sales guy (who looked like Ned Flanders) stood nearby. After the Luthier left, the sales guy was told to ring me up and while I was paying for the work the sales guy was looking at my guitar and commented that it was a nice Strat. Then, as I was closing the guitar case, he abruptly stated, "Wait!" and he pointed to the "Made In Mexico" decal on the headstock and said that he hadn't noticed that the guitar was a Mexican model and commented that the guitar was not as nice as he first thought.

Overheard a guy in GC one time who couldn’t go six seconds without mentioning how expensive his private stock PRS was and how important it was that it be taken good care of because it’s a private stock PRS.

I may be a rare gear snob. I do like things that are a little different. Since I started playing, my dream guitar was a pink hotrod strat. The 2020 fender HM strat in flash pink was my guitar. I bought 2. After that, I picked up a Taylor T5Z custom koa. I love koa. The versatility of that guitar is insane and the rarity made it an easy choice for me.

Funny is when one of those guys meets a sales guy who is also one.. It becomes a comedy show. There are no limits and so funny to watch. Remember once at my local shop. They were talking gear. It was model numbers here and years things were made there and where they were made and who invented and so on.. I just stood and listened and had a great time. Loved it. Nerds incorporated.

He said well I saw you were on the 2nd fret , but that chord is E. Something to that effect. I said wellllll...the song is in drop D so I was playing E.

Nothing beats playing my original 78 Les Paul through a 100 Watt Marshall 1959 stack. The only problem I have with using a Marshall is being able to play with an erection! 🤘😎🎸

Yes and no, there is a difference between being a snob and having a preference. It's when you belittle things you don't like because they aren't what you like that it becomes snobby. Example, I really don't like flying V's. I think they look stupid, and I also don't like bolt on necks, and i prefer rosewood fret boards. These just aren't my cup of tea. But if someone were to hand me a flying v with a bolt on neck and a standard maple fretboard my first instinct wouldn't be to beat it across every available surface and burn the remains, I'd still plug it in and try it.

I got my tele from one of those guys. First thing I did when I got it was raise the strings of the frets.

Maybe appropriate statement here. I'm late 70's I made an emergency Sears catalog order with 2 day store delivery. Just moved across 2 states, My possessions couldn't be found. I shared the moving company truck with another family moving to the same state. I ordered a no name Sears Les Paul copy for $79.00 for a gig in 3 days. It was a beautiful red sunburst, bolt on neck, and single coils hidden in humbucker cases. Set it up, replaced strings, played it at gig. Once I tweaked the eq on the borrowed amp it was a HOOT to play. Some tuning problems. I liked it so much I upgraded the tuners and pickups and played it for years on specific songs at gigs. It was stolen as we loaded in a gig. Funny thing, it was worth the least of anything in the van. That guitar showed me the name on the headstock didn't mean much then, and less now. I have big name gear but also some less desirable names too.

One thing nice about guitars and amps is it's still an option to get usa made stuff. Although all the parts like tubes and pots are probably made elsewhere.

As a small guitar shop owner this checks out completely.

When I was in college I had someone count my frets telling me there was not as many as his, so mine must a 3/4, then time passed and I got a bc rich warlock and he said it was fake because he did not recognise the serial number.

Hardware snob also pick on: Tuners/Machine Heads and gear ratio. Strings, has to be a specific brand, no other brand. Pickups has to be Alnico 4 with some crazy name attached like bluesy or knuckle head tone ride. Battery, the 9V has to be a specific make to get the right power. Fretboard, dot inlays are for cheap guitars only. Fretboard, fret ends that are rounded mean expensive. Picks, has to be a specific pick to get the sound like "d'andrea1.1mm green delrin from 1991 with logo"
