word god.
i used to have a ton of gadgets when i started out. they are fun, but not necessary. especially if you are recording. the only effects that i like to have actually running into my computer is distortion and sometimes delay. any other effects can be added using your software (if you even want any).
i played lead guitar for 5 years (basically shred metal) before i finally got tired of it. i rarely do anything more complicated than a simple scale nowadays. just like in art, less is more. (though every once in a while though i crank up and tear into some old metallica haha)
a nice complex song full of melody and counter melodies is great, but you cant beat simplicity. and no matter how "uninformed" you are with an instrument, you can still make music with it. experiment, go far out, just bring it back down after you are done. =)
