I found this on a thread at the Stratocaster forum.

Thanks Scott for posting such an interesting listening challenge!

Hey man I was freaking out so I took the test twice before finding out what´s what.

-worst tone, numbers % and %. Oh my God! What´s that crap? :lol:

-best tone, numbers %, and %, and the winner by far, number % !!!. Ha! 8)

Guys keep in mind not to give away the test if you post comments.

Cheers, and many thanks Scott Grove!

I tried to guess which was Fender and which was Gibson. I got 12 of 18 correct. Still it was rather humbling as I wasn't completely sure much of the time. (Also, using the single-coil setting on a humbucker was a bit unfair. :x ) All in all it was an enlightening experience.

I got some correct dead on, others I missed totally. Fender vs Gibson I had a better percentage. But guessing actual models, not so much. Humbuckers vs single coil/ P 90 dead on.

Very eye opening. U have been gravitating towards a Gibson guitar, but from this video not so much now. Fender guitars were the ones I liked the best.

Thanks for posting, but I'd lost the will to live by about number 8.

I may never listen to Sweet Home Alabamha ever again..
