Do you think wood audibly affects tone in electric guitars, even when strings, pickups, electronics, preamps, effects, mixing, mastering, are factored in? I know this has been discussed many times but I just want to hear your opinion.
Everything matters in the end, and wood is surely one of the factors involved. I'm gonna post a video in which I play two JPs with different woods but exact same pickups and strings, so you can judge yourself :)
Anyway, imho the biggest factor in recorded tone (apart from hands) is the cabinet.
