Where is the tone?
So I got thinking lately- where does 'tone' come from? Here's my breakdown (in terms of percentages) and I'd like to know what you all think and maybe you'd like to help tweak my theory of tone.
58% from the amp
16% from the pickups
10% from the wood of the guitar
8% from the picking technique of the player
5% from the strings
2% from the type of bridge
1% from the ear of the person controlling all of the above
Anything I'm forgetting? I'm interested in putting new DiMarzio pups in my guitar but I'm a bit skeptical about how much of a tonal difference I'll actually perceive from the new pickups that my amp won't overshadow. Lets make a discussion of this. What do you think- where is the tone?
