The experiment I always wondered about

[Tonart]

And now someone has actually gone about it. Bravo!

I think the biggest problem with that experiment is that he didn't control for the difference in break angle over the bridge.

I liked the other one, "Tone Wood Tester". It is a pretty good representation of the difference in sounds between the different woods. Although it seemed that the guy wasn't quite sure there was a difference in sound on some, I could hear the differences easily.

Sustain test between LP and 100 ton building. Hmmm...

The building had too much sustain, fewer harmonics and only one string.

He could have simply substituted the Gittler guitar for the building. Yes, this is a guitar, not a roof aerial.
