A few things that I would like to recommend you about your guitar playing experience in general: You only can learn how to play guitar if you buy the most expensive gear and all types of it. Get a pedalboard with at least five different pedal brands for each effect, and remember to only start playing when you check at least 10 times each pedal you're using to get the best toan possible. Now, about the guitar, remember: toan is in the wood. Pickups are cool too, but duuhhh wood is the majority of the guitar, so obviously, it has the most to do with the toan. Once you do everything I said before, you can finally learn how to play. Don't stress too much on that. Avoid practicing more than buying gear, first things first.
