Wudtone Vs Nitro

Cool. Some of that hardware looks new on the fresh bodies - the Wudtone has really effected the look of the instruments!

If you have reasonably uniform (note for note) samples from each instrument I can run them through the analyzer and get some hardcore data one each result?

Even with more "random" pieces of audio some comparative data can still be gained, but the results will be more generalised.

Can I suggest some double-blind type tests?

Two audio samples from each instrument, comprised typically a "before" and an "after", although throwing in one set of samples that were taken from the same guitar would be funny. These samples could then be published to the group, anonymously labelled as A and B, allowing us to choose our favourite sounds and also take a stab at which we believe is the nitro or Wudtone.

In the late 80's and early 90's I was part of a number of double-blind tests for both CD v. Vinyl and Analogue v. Digital recording. The results were always interesting.

Might be a bit late to suggest note for note tests.....I aint putting Nitro back on these beauties!!!

What?! So slack.. send 'em down here, I'll do it. ;)

Fair enough though. Do you think it will be possible to mimic the first recordings and create similarly structured samples?

I especially like the one with the humbuckers, but they all look awesome.

yer Gav those 3 strats look sweet, looks like quite a few hardware changes, so will it be a fair comparison ?

Rhay sounds interesting the blind test and the analyser

what are you planning to do with the strats Gav, keep them in your collection ?

Hmmmm... I see that there is a Strat wooth H/S/H config... the other two are S/S/S config, that will void any form of result, unless the middle pups are the same....

The sound tests were done after I completed the Wudtone but BEFORE I upgraded the components. I kept the original pickguards intact and had to merely ground the bridge and reattach the output Jack. It is my intention to provide 10 samples....3 from each guitar with a red herring included which would be a second sample from one of the guitars. Tone deaf individuals who cannot tell the difference will be excluded from the sample if they have these samples at opposite ends of the spectrum.... :)
