more a source of "tone" than the instrument itself.

I think that what Scott was trying to get across is not that you would
design the guitar, processors, amplifier, cabinet, and speaker as a
unit, but rather, that a speaker intended for use with an electric
guitar would have different design parameters than one that was intended
to be used in a home bookshelf speaker, which would have different
design parameters than one intended for use in a PA line-array system, etc.


Well duh! Did anybody say otherwise?
