True, that why the unwound G is so crazy loud with old pickups.
Tube amp and guitar tones straight from 1958… amazing how believable the sounds were back then, even without the modellers...

Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

It’s not though out. Muff- Tumnus-Zendrive. Adding the tumnus with it’s mid control to either of the others pops them out of the band sound effectively. That’s all I need so I stopped there.
