Do Tonewoods Affect Tone? - Bare Knuckle Polymath Test

Описание: Same pickup. Same woods. Same build. Two ESP Eclipses that should sound identical - and don't. No talking, no commentary. Just the Bare Knuckle Polymath in both guitars so you can hear the difference yourself.

No talking - just tones.
