Y'all -

Regarding this question of beginners vs. experienced users and flawed 
vs. responsive and precision gear allow me to submit this 
observation...

Whether you're talking guitars, cameras, or skis, beginners really 
benefit from good gear.  When a highly experienced and resourceful 
practitioner finds him or herself with a limited piece of gear in hand 
(foot, whatever) the seasoned user simply makes a quick assessment of 
what the thing will & won't do and goes with the "will" part.  Ya got a 
pinhole, you don't go for sharp.  Ya got the Kay, you play bottleneck.
