I believe Long Jon said he strapped one on his neck to improve his singing voice, but didn’t have any luck.

I wonder if the Tonewood Amp that generates chorusing, echo and reverb out of the sound hole would also have a similar effect with the additional effect vibrations.

Like anything else you'll read on it, or personally experience, it's merely just one opinion among many. Personally, I would never use one and hope even more, that I never feel I need to.

Well now that's very interesting. Can you elaborate on that?

I have never bought a guitar after playing several contenders, deciding that was the guitar that produced the sound I was seeking, and then started seeking ways I could fundamentally change the sound, apart from new strings and a proper setup.
That includes new ones or old ones, the latter most likely not a ToneRite candidate. If someone feels that a ToneRite is no more "invasive" than a set of strings, I'm no one to pass judgement on that opinion, I just hold a different one.

Does that hinge on the word "utility"? Had he remarked that it was "unnecessary and of questionable benefit", would you have been in agreement with that? I'm not trying to badger you, I just had this impression you were a fervent supporter. Maybe you just disagree when people write stuff like, "the ToneRite has no effect". Although from all the (subjective) reviews, people seem to often think it affects some guitars more than others, and some very little if at all. |

Questionable benefit would have better described the device, IMO. If I agreed with "ToneRite has no effect" as a blanket statement, presented as fact, I'd have to believe that the people who say they do hear an appreciable difference, don't know what they're talking about and aren't hearing what they claim to hear. Think bridge-pin debate. I'm a "fervent supporter" of accepting what anyone says THEY hear. Somehow that seems up for debate at times. When Joe make the comment that I quoted, it cleared up the TR debate for me. He gave credence to its function, but (in his opinion) that you may or may not like the end result. Thus, one more reason I personally would never use one.
