Musician's Ear Edit Meaning

1.

term used by guitarists to explain why they are buying a new instrument when there is nothing wrong with the one they have, under the pretense that normal people's ears aren't as attuned to the sound of a guitar. skeptics often see this as a bullshit excuse to buy a cool new axefor purposes of showing off.

dude1: why did you buy that ibanez? it sounds just like your stratocaster!

dude2:no way man, they're totally different. you just don't have the musician's ear.

dude1:whatever man, you just bought that cuz it looks cool.
