Well, 

The characteristics tend to be found within the guitar group more than say 
saxophonists or piano players. The guitar world tends to gather a-holes more 
readily because I guess the notion of the six stringer in all his glory is more 
prevalent than the guy with the "key-tar" (Whatever happened to that thing?). I 
agree it does more reflect upon the "two inch crowd" of musicians than the 
instrument itself.
