There's no doubt that I'm fascinated by ToneDexter and the experiences which folks are having with it. Still, I think Matt is making the right decision not to yank a beloved pickup on the basis of some anecdotal evidence that the Pure Mini might be more compatible with ToneDexter. Perhaps its relevant that I've already been caught up in the excitement of two previous "magic box" introductions, but ended up opting to sell the boxes and keep using some preferred pickups which were poorly compatible with the boxes.

I truly hope that ToneDexter will be the "magic box" to end magic boxes, but (IMO) its a little too early to yank a state-of-the-art beloved pickup for it.
