They should spend some time matching th db of each guitar so we can get a better idea of how they compare...

Wouldn't that fuck up the loudness comparison?
Does loudness (higher output pickups) mean better to you? I think that is only one dimension in the tonal qualities of the comparison.

No, not necessarily (and I don't think I said that I do).
I just don't see how manipulating the volumes post recording would make a better comparison. It would hide one part of the tonal quality of the guitar. Just my opinion of course!
Post recording? I meant when switching from one guitar to the next before recording. The interesting question would be whether to use the volume of the amp of the volume of the guitar to match db’s. I would be curious if the pre cbs would still break up at a matched db.
