I didn't mean in this specific case. I meant that there has been a clear pattern of you dismissing someone else's opinion because they don't pay taxes.
Do you just bankroll your entire band?
And um...is that why they brought you in?
Just sayin'...rhythm guitar and all...

Ok. Not taxes. Doesn't matter - taxes was just an example. My point is, you attempt to pull age (having achieved the lofty age of what, 24?) frequently and in situations where it means nothing.
Pulling age is always obnoxious, but here it's also completely retarded because the topic is CELL PHONES.

Well, 14 and 15 years old frequently think they know everything there is to know about life when it's not true. His viewpoint on things will change once he starts working and is able to pay for shit on his own because he'll want stuff because he can have it, not because it is necessarily practical in nature.
ml is 16, and I think that in practical matters he thinks fine. As far as wanting stuff because you can have it, it's not like that doesn't start until the moment someone hands you a paycheck. His point was not that you shouldn't want extra features, but that not having the extra features are not necessary and people shouldn't whine about not having them. I don't think this indicates a flaw in his outlook on life, and I thought your response was obnoxious and condescending.

Figuring out my finances and making plans with regard to my guitar rig. My plan is to get a nice guitar, switch in some Seymour Duncan blackouts, get a cheap marshall tube amp, and use a nice tube pedal running into the marshall's clean channel to get a nice tone. I'm not an expert on this stuff (i.e. I have no idea what the fuck I'm doing) but my friend says this should work. I can't afford a nice amp, but this way I should be able to get a badass guitar and rig for under $2k. I plan on playing in a band in college, so I'll need this, and while I'll be taking a year off after high school, my parents want me to put the money I earn then into a savings account for college (not for tuition, for food and shit). Anyhow, it looks like I can raise upwards of $900 by the end of the summer. Figuring about $100 for the AA show, I should be able to get a nice guitar (used, obviously) and the pickups. The amp and cab will cost under $500, so this puts me well on my way.

What all tube Marshall head did you find for that cheap?
What style are you going to be playing?
What style are you going to be playing?
I'm going to be playing mostly death metal, thrash, etc. My project is multi-style - ranges from thrash, death, and black metal to power metal and I'm even working on some hair metal, though it seems like I'm too masculine for it. I would probably eventually invest in a nicer head, but this would carry me for now.
As for the amp, it was something used. Not sure I can find it again. it was one of the shittier ones. Anyhow, I might buy a solid state head if I can't find one - doesn't particularly matter, since I'd be using the clean channel and a tube pedal - one of these, to be precise.
It would be a temporary head - have it for a year or two while I save for something really nice like a Powerball or Fireball or a JCM 2000.

That pedal actually looks pretty cool.
If you can save up enough (either now, or eventually), you might look into the Peavey 5150 (now the 6505). It's an all-tube head designed for metal. I bought mine used for $400, though admittedly, that is a very cheap price even for these amps used.
I want to get a Splawn cab, but it's going to run me $800. That's a lot to spend on something I can only use over the summer.

Just got off work, listening to Arsis, thinking about bludgeoning the neighbors upstairs for having a Justin Timberlake party....
