I am home sick today and it's finals week...so naturally I had nothing better to do. I decided to A/B both of my guitars today with a riff that I just wrote and used the same exact plugs/settings on all tracks, even the settings on my amp didn't change.
Let me know what you think good or bad.

I agree, I noticed that the Fender is more noisy, and has more high frequency garble. It's also got a humbucker, so it's got more output than a single coil Fender. I was also impressed by the Jackson, as it seems not very "wow" sounding live, and sometimes lacks definition. But it seems to have come over in the recording quite well. I was actually thinking of popping in a different pickup.

Well, I'm partial to the sound of single coils or a strat in the 2 or 4 position. That being said, why not use both? Different textures can build your tone though I think for this type of music the V sounds more "right".
