I'm not butthurt at all. I hope you're not one of those people that assumes everyone is hostile when they disagree with you.

And until you can prove your point with objective facts, your opinion will be subject to criticism. So feel free to put your opinion out there, but don't get upset if someone questions it.

This is a video of two "identical" guitars made of different body wood so have a listen.

I do find these discussions interesting but they always go the same way.

Sullinger

They WOULD! Alright, I already mentioned this above, but using your logic, on a fingerboard, you'd get a different tone on your 3rd, 5th, and 7th fret because the inlay material is completely different then that of the actual fingerboard wood.

I don't have evidence like that for the body wood; but do you REALLY think the wood is going to make a difference on a magnet? Really.

Sullinger

unless they're using the same EXACT pickups (since no two are the same) and it's the same height, it's invalid.

When the argument is so bad your not sure it's a troll...

KSEjunkie2468

Evolution has evidence to back it up, whereas your claims have none whatsoever.

Sullinger

IT DOES HAVE EVIDENCE, LOOK AT MY POST JUST ABOVE.

Sullinger

No, it's just beyond me how stupid everyone can be (But you actually had some logical points that would make me believe there's a tonal wood difference)

Sullinger

When you're such an idiot you take the one post with no evidence and try say my argument is bad just off that.

W4RP1G

It's like you didn't read a word I put out there

Well using your logic there's no reason to make guitars out of wood at all, there's no reason for guitar companies to make guitars out of different kinds of wood. But guess what, THEY DO. AND THERE IS A REASON.

And the magnet is simply not the only thing that affects the guitar's tone

Sullinger

They companies only do it for marketing, plus wood is really easy to work with since guitars have weird curves.

And yes, your pickup is a magnet. It picks up a strings magnetic vibration. It goes to your amp. It's simply impossible for the wood it sits on to change the amount of bass, treble, etc. the pickup picks up.

zilant

It was much easier than quoting all of your posts.



Do you honestly believe people pay for superior tonewoods just to hear them acoustically?

MegadethFan18

Surprisingly I've actually never heard anyone say that, I've thought about it myself though. You hear about people trying loads of the same model of guitar but you never hear anyone say "I had to try 10 EMG 85s before I found one I liked"

There are a lot of variables and it is hard to determine which ones are actually making a difference, I mean does persons fingerprint affects tone?

Sullinger

People pay for "superior" tonewoods because they think there's actually a difference! The companies know this! They know they can make lots of money off it!

(finally someone who can think for themselves)

There are plenty of variables, but it's just impossible for the wood a magnet sits on to change the amount of different freq. it picks up. People just buy it because that's what guitar companies want you to think. Eventually I'll take the time and money to but the exact same guitar, but with different fingerboard woods, and switch out the pickup and do a blind switch test. I'll even switch out the pots, jack, etc.

...that moment when you actually believe 9/11 was a government setup...
but really, it's like saying "Well, when I paint this oak board red and this pine board red, the oak just has a deeper red to it" (assuming it's the same can of opaque paints)
