Not every guitar asks the same thing of its owner. Rational Guitar reviews gear through utility, maintenance realism, and mechanical friction—not just hype, prestige, or price.
The goal is simple: determine whether a piece of gear actually makes sense for the player who has to live with it. That means looking at stability, setup demands, ownership burden, and how well something works in your Reality Soundcheck rather than stage-volume life.
