How much of an anal guitar freak are you?

Can you happily listen to ok guitar based music with mediocre or uninspiring guitar playing - e.g. punk?

Is your CD collection dominated by CDs by top-notch players or bands with brilliant guitarists?

Im perfectly happy to listen to good songs where the guitar isn't dominant or for that matter even where it's non-existent. But I do get bugged by guitar based music where the playing is nothing much i.e. strummed major chords with weedy 1 minute solos. Stuff like Travis, Oasis, Sum 41 etc.

I have to admit that I have an abnormally high proportion CDs containing top notch 6 stringing. So praps I am a bit of an anal guitar freak.
