And while I'm having potentially stupid thoughts...
Suppose you wired a guitar to send the treble PU out of one jack and the
neck (and middle, if there is one) PUs out of another. Then, you design
an amp with two switchable channels so you could, for example, have the bridge
PU going thru a big, fat, saturated Dumble-esque (please don't sue me, Alexander!)
high gain channel and the other PU(s) thru a shimmering, warm clean channel.
Flip the selector switch to go from lead to rhythm. Or run both at the
same time for fat, sustaining distortion w/ a nice clear, articulated note
underneath. Or switch the amp around to have a little crunch on the neck/mid
PU and bright, clean Tele twang on the bridge PU. You could start the experiment
by wiring a guitar in stereo and using two amps.
Hmmm. I might have found a use for some of my down-time this week!
