    "If everyone else uses Fenders, then I'd play a Gibson". Integrity and creativity. Most other tutorials teach you the exact opposite; how to copy everyone else and rip of other people's style. I remember when selling out and ripping people off was unacceptable, and if you made a tune that sounded like someone else you would be embarrassed. I wish we still kept that mentality in the modern era, instead of an endless stream of mediocre generic copies off the back of others hard work. I guess it's tough for the vast majority of producers and musicians right now, they're born too late to really explore new ground and coupled with the sheer amount of people on the planet it makes it tough to be an individual or an outlier. Hey ho, life goes on, at least there's lots of financial incentives for people who wanna be different and create new forms!
