WTF....??? Does he build miniature model custom guitars for dashboards or the real deal? How the hell can anyone concur with this when the simplest of simple comparos (that being maple versus rosewood versus ebony fingerboards) shows differences that are so obvious? Soooooooooooooo, this custom guitar maker thinks plywood or pine would sound just as good as mahogany?
Clueless. But what gets me is he MAKES guitars?!?!?!??!?!

A/B comparisons between anything that requires taking strings off is moot. Such slight differences in string and pickup height can cause huge tone variations. When we are talking about two different guitars the amount of variables exceeds in my opinion what any average human is capable of controlling, let alone to call it an A/B comparison.
