Hardtail strats still look cooler. That fraction of a square inch hanging off the trem bugs me.Just slam the bridge down with 5 springs
Orange does the low mid grunt thing better than the Mesa rectifier series.
"Shitty" gear can have more character than using THE "BEST" top of the line gear
The best frequency is obviously 432.Eb just sounds better than E Standard

Except that road cases add weight, and some people live alone so there's no guarantee there's anyone around to help.No problem with a roadcase. Just ask for help to move it through stairs, etc.

This is my situation, and it's why I tend to like head+cab setup. The head can travel while the cabs stay. 4x12 (or 8x10 or what have you) at the jam room, with the 1x12 at home, and when the cabs do need to move it's likely because the whole band is there loading/unloading stuff.If you live alone and move your amp from your house to your rehearsal/space gigs on your own, then yeah. Combos are not for you. But then again heads and cabs probably aren't either.

Also, do other places not do gear sharing? Like 90% of shows I've played were arranged so that one band brings cabs, and everyone else just brings their heads.
Honestly I'm not sure this is all that unpopular of an opinion anymore.I’d rather have an ampless, pedalboard based rig at this point.
