Mainly in terms of dynamics. How reactive it is to the velocity of your pick attack and how much compression there is. I've found that usually means how much negative feedback is in the amp's power section.
I'm curious if there's a limited run Hetfield version in white with an ebony board coming. The black w/ rosewood seems like the move you'd do if you wanted people to pay bigger bucks for a premium model.
That's what I'm wondering. There's an $850 price difference, so if it's just a relic job and a pickup that's different, I'll grab the white and black one with a Floyd.

Here's a screenshot. The top WAV file is my Splawn into my Suhr Reactive Load with no IR. The bottom file is printed with an IR of a Celestion V30 mic'd with an SM57
