And we wonder why it is so hard to discuss tone in terms of our various guitars.........!!!

Steve: I could hardly believe what was happening when I watched the video for the first time. Had to watch it a couple more times. I am now convinced that folks have their self conceived ideas and feelings about certain guitar brands realized when they play them. Not that that is bad.............it just happens. It sure makes things a bit more interesting in terms of how people communicate about guitars and sound.

Markus: That's interesting, It just occurred to me that maybe folks who have a native language other then English may not be affected. Also folks with different accents from the chap in the video may not be affected. I was very much blown away myself. Thanks for the comment.
