I have a new Telecaster now. My brother-in-law asked me what sort of pickups it had and my answer was "ones that make a guitar sound come out the amp". It sounds great. I have no idea what other pickups do or why I would replace the ones that work.
The digital/analog debate is for people who only go see bands in bars that play guitar solos and nothing else, while sports plays on 15 screens around the room.
I've been playing guitar for 25 years, know nothing about guitars, and have sold more albums than you.

Real talk this is a bunch of empty buzzword salad and that's why we're giving you a hard time.

See you posted your opinion on a Jaguar, I posted mine as well. You don’t like the feel of a Jaguar, I don’t like the feel of a machine wound pickup

I’m very aware of the controversy in buzz words but honestly it’s way harder to explain yourself without them. I do t agree with them all either but the industry made them and we’re now forced to use them to speak a language we can all understand.

If I were to plug a digital pedal into my rig I can 100% hear the difference in how the buffer alone effects my amp, on top of that the digital repeats and clarity of a delay for example sound too perfect, clear, and don’t have feel to them, an an analog delay has body and depth to it and has flaws that feel natural. It’s more to it than “I can hear this is digital”. There is a whole feel to the difference in the pedal.
