Do Expensive Guitars Really Make A Big Difference In Tone?

[Newbie]

There’s always debate about whether high-end guitars significantly improve tone. What’s been your experience?

[BluesGuy]

I’ve played affordable guitars that sounded great with good setup and pickups.

I think consistency and build quality are usually better on expensive instruments, even if the tonal difference isn’t huge.

Higher-end guitars often feel better to play, which indirectly improves tone.
