Can anyone please tell me what this thread is about?

We are not allowed to summarize. But it's between Digital is better than Analog, Polish people and Squirrels.

Oops,

It’s about if a photocopy of an amp is as good as a Rembrandt. Even with a colour laser printer .
OR
If you’re sat in the cheap seats and squint a bit it’s perfect versus the flat earth society that thinks it is actually perfect.

I feel like folks can get that way with a lot of guitar gear, not just digital. I was watching an old That Pedal Show with Greg Koch on it. He was talking about the Wildwood 10 guitars and how surprised he was at how quickly they flew off the shelves and you could tell from the way he talked about them his thoughts were "great guitars, but I ain't spending that kinda money on most of them". Somehow the spec sheet, or the curation of Wildwood, or whatever, got them selling $4k custom shop Strats at a much higher rate than before, mostly through online orders. I guess people didn't trust going into a shop and playing guitars, but once a guitar was curated, or had a spec sheet they thought they might like, they were perfectly happy spending $4k on them without ever playing one? Its this weird combo of not trusting their own senses, but somehow WILDLY overtrusting a spec sheet and/or curator.

No. That idiot analogy was worn out 20 years ago.
