I was referring more to the aura that surrounded owning a particular guitar, bass or whatever as a kid - working and either saving for it or putting it on layaway and heading down to the store each week to drop another $20 on it. I remember it well, buying my Bicentennial T-Bird (V4B, SVT, etc.) used at a local family operation. Now, with credit, and all the instant gratification it brings, it's not the same thing.
