I disagree that HG gear is easy to find. Well, technically its easy to find what claims to be HG, but how do you know those "organon," "scherring," etc. stuff you see online, even from "trusted" sources, is legit HG and not UGL stuff put in imitation amps? Then there's the hassle of ordering online, maybe not receiving your stuff (especially if you live in Canada which has tougher customs than the U.S.) Lots of UGL stuff is good if you get it from a trusted source. My advice is to become buddies with some of the bigger guys in your city and chances are the stuff they use is good enough and buy from them.
