You Might Be Wrong About Your Favourite Guitar

I was immediately drawn to one of them, and the other has basically stayed in its case ever since. So I decided to find out why. This week I’m blindfolded and comparing the two guitars in a straight shootout to see whether feel, muscle memory and instinct actually hold up when you remove sight from the equation. We all like to think we know what we’re hearing and feeling when we play, but how much of that is actually shaped by what we see? And if we’ve got a real preference for one instrument over another, surely that should be obvious just by feel… surely? But once the blindfold goes on, things change quickly. You start noticing different details, making different assumptions, and second-guessing things you would normally be certain about. What starts as a simple comparison turns into something more revealing - about how preferences form, and how easily they can shift when one of your main senses is taken away. And yes - I am wearing a blindfold in public while doing it.
