Most likely if you get cheap shit now you're gonna end up selling it within a few months asking what else can you get to improve your quality.. Its a money saver to get really good shit in the beginning compared to upgrading every few months or so. Just takes patience to save the money. Me personally I try to spend atleast $300 for each piece of equipment. Sounds like alot but trust me.
