Heard lots of interesting uses of the word tone. Most are far from a music school dictionary defenition of semi-tones, half step, whole step type of things. Lots of equipment manufacturers are selling 'the tone'. When some marketing douche bag gets involved things usually go to hell. I am thinking 'the sound' is the sum of technique in fingers + tone characteristics of the gear.
Here is one of my observations.
Lets compare the emo douche bag salesboy terms tossed about at every Guitar Center concerning tone to a nice dog turd. The clump of dog **** curled up on my side walk in the morning will be organic. And yep, it will be round, maybe a bit chunky, probably is thick, maybe even grainy, could be dark or bright, probably some depth, I would bet it's chewy, but I'm not trying. So tone, as newly defined, could be the hunk of dog **** the Boston Terrier down the street leaves for me every morning. :lol:
