Thanks once again for posting these comparisons, Josh. I guess since I picked the Pre73 for all three vocals and the FS for all three guitars, I was agreeing with you without knowing it....

I think I chose the Pre73 (unknowingly) for vox because I liked the upper-mid punch that the Pre73 imparted.

As for the guitar, the three (FS) tracks I chose were chosen because I felt that they had just a bit more accurate bass, especially when playing chords featuring the (low) E and A strings against the higher strings.

I guess one (man)'s upper-mid presence is another (man or guitar)'s lack of bass. Boosting is cutting is boosting....
