1) Not to cause (another) divide... but which do you hear?

Yanny or Laurel?


For background... the original recording is found at vocabulary.com:

https://www.vocabulary.com/dictionary/laurel

53% of folks hear Laurel while 57% hear Yanni...

Now on to Part 2 of this, which is what I'm most interested in...

2) Do you think PIO Caps sound different than Ceramic Caps? Y/N

3) Do pickups sound the same with the covers off? Y/N

I'm just wondering if the silliness of the Yanni/Laurel might (at least in part) explain other tonal perceptions.

Indulge me... :salude

They've done studies, you know. 110% of the time, it works every time.

Does Yanni use ceramic caps in a guitar with uncovered pickups?
