I grew up with $20 walmart blenders, and hated anything that required a blender.
Recently bought a ninja and there is no going back. I’ll never use a crappy blender again.
Anything else like that?

I’m saying this mainly from bass perspective. But generally you have to get lucky in the cheap department to get decently good instrument. When you shift to like $500 range it gets better and for “normal use” $1000 is good enough (normal = not professional, just hobby player). Most things above $1500 are usually just waste of money to show off.
(All calculations including pre-owned prices.)
Another approach for electrics is to take a cheap body and swap out the electronics with something from a much nicer instrument, in addition to a proper setup. Far cheaper route and you’ll end up with a $100-$200 guitar that sounds and feels like a $1,000+ guitar.
I got a super cheap electric guitar kit that I’m going to build (someday). Is there a good source for electric guitar electronics (pickups, etc.)? Or would you just recommend buying cheap used guitars and “stealing” the electronics?
I’m thinking that my electronics are super low quality so I’d like to upgrade.
Aside from ebay, Reverb will have a lot of pickup options, both new and used. For example, I bought a set of bass pickups out of an $850 Fender bass to put in my ~$100 Squier bass. I think I paid like $50-$80 for the pickups by themselves.
