I swapped the pickguard, so apart from the body neck and strings everything else (height, pickups, electronics ...) are the same.
BOth are american strats, one 90 alder, the other 02 ash. Both have maple necks and rosewood fretboards. BTW the pickup recorded is a van zandt vintage + in the neck.
So this is a controlled expriment of how the wood affects the tone. I know it is not perfect, but I hopethat at least it provides a good starting point.
Here they are:
2002 ash strat neck position
1990 alder strat neck position
BTW the 90 is the guitar that is seen in my signature, and the 02 ash is the one in my avatar.
