If it's a definitive choice between BL and THE MINDLESS CROWD
I didn't mean to suggest that Bill was the definitive authority... note the words "begin your education”.. Bill publishes some of his considerable knowledge on his site, and beginning with a bit of valid objective information cannot be a bad thing.

Whatever choice made will typically be subjective, just like some want the Bimmer, and some want the F-250. Which is the best “ride”.

The Keystones would NEVER be in Redd’s guitars if Redd didn’t like them, and like Bill, Redd is not the definitive authority on a subjective topic either. But if you wanna know a bit about picking a guitar, Redd’s input would be invaluable in helping you decide which way you want to go. Similarly, if you are embroiled in the “tone quest”, being able to pick the mind of the guy that is responsible for about every pickup innovation over the past 60 years, couldn’t hurt. You can be assured Bills pickups are on a number of other guitarists every bit as talented as Redd. That doesn’t diminish Red in the least, nor does it elevate those using Bill’s products above Redd, It just reflects choices made by talented guitarists.

If it's a definitive choice between applied science and THE MINDLESS CROWD… well… y’all know me….
