I just bought a new strap, and it looks awesome, but it just doesn't sound as good. >.<

Sucks the life right out of my guitar. And I haven't even taken it out of package.

Tone is what comes out of Dumblz.

oh, TONE? Yes, I have it. It says so in a lot of pedals and shit I have.

Perhaps somebody should go over the TGP and try selling them obscenely pricy TONE knobs, who knows - life is full of opportunities for the brave.

I thought it was spelled "toan".

Tone is in the spelling.

I think it's either this:


Or this:

...the vague erotic promises of the orchid and a soap bar must have toan! It says so!

well after reading so many discussions on tone, I would think that people generally agree that "tone" is a short version "good tone". while there are many different sounds available to the guitar player, tone always comes back to two things, signal to noise ratio, sustain. people dont really use that as the definition but if you look at what they like and why they like it. these are the only constants in every situation. on the flipside, a squire > ds-1 > fender frontman 15r is SHIT TONE. its a fact. go try it. now you understand. anyway its a real word and we dont need to laugh at people who use it. just laugh at people who abuse it. like tag and his 1,843,784 dumbles

not entirely. the other constant in discussions of "tone" is the relative distribution of harmonic content. your Telecaster players and Gretsch types will opine endlessly on "twang," its various permutations, and how it's best produced/expressed. check out the 15-minute comparo videos of TV Jones Dynasonics vs. Seymour Duncan Dynas sometime. P90 players are a little UN of their own, with a million boutique makers each of whom someone proclaims the bestest EVER. and everybody's got their own little fuss about where they want their notch in the mids of their PAFs to be, and whether it's a bump or a cut. and the distribution question is where it inevitably bogs down, because you can't argue with someone else's ears.

TURD KNOWS TOAN

you either have tone or you don't. You either know, or you don't. The fact that you feel compelled to ask is telling.

That method is foolproof.

This, this is toan.
