We need to get over the prejudice that cheap gear = bad gear.

Inexpensive Gear doesn't equal bad gear though.

I am assuming that you include everyone in the "we", I don't have that prejudice. Perhaps it would better to say "I need to get over the prejudice that cheap gear = bad gear", if that's a prejudice you have.

Oh yeah, totally The Royal "we"! You know, the editorial.
No, it's a thing musicians do all the time. The image of an instrument, and so forth. Rouge basses and Crate Rigs. I had a Crate rig and it had some pretty solid tone. Not hugely punchy, but I had some pretty stellar tone when attempting certain tonal genres.
