The argument that equipment doesn't count and that the greats could make anything sound good is purely hypothetical (and would seem self-evidently false), as we have no recorded data whatsoever to support it, and everything else against it.

Anyone have a recording of Robert Marcellus, Sabine Meyer, Ricardo Morales, Karl Leister, or George Pieterson playing a plastic elementary model? Me neither.

Believe me, if quality of equipment didn't matter, at least one of the greats would have been smart enough to know it, and would have stopped 'wasting' money. We would have at least one example of a great orchestral player who played on a plastic $99 clarinet. The fact remains that we don't.

I wrote a more detailed article on this topic, posted here:
