I can't agree and resonate with this idea more. As much as I love the guitar and all it's glory; the recording process brings me just as much fulfillment. I have always been the leader of my bands, chief songwriter, etc. It was only natural that I fell into recording and producing with time. I will always stand by the fact that you don't need a lot to do a lot. It simply takes patience and time working with what you have. I feel guitar playing is no different, as you don't have to have all the gear in the world to get great sounds and results.

Best of luck and remember that with time you will be amazed at how much you can accomplish with very little gear. :)
