A decent guitarist on a great guitar will sound better than Steve Vai on a children's toy plastic four string guitar.
In other words, gear does play a LOT into what the final product sounds like.
Steve Vai is about my least favorite famous gtr player and I still think your analogy is about 180 degrees wrong
A crap singer just sounds even crappier on a museum u47. Stevie Wonder singing through a 58 makes you wanna smack your momma
