I'm curious as to whether this will make any practical difference. I doubt that it will. The contemporary worship music world (US-UK-CAN-AUS-EURO) is almost all evangelical/charismatic/pentecostal, and I recall seeing very few posts here in the latter (i.e. gospel) area. The Catholic stream is very similar to the less edgy CCM and folky John Michael Talbot style. I recall one thread that involved a Jewish player who played in a church worship band, which led to the often-discussed "do you have to be a believer to be in the band" debate. Ten years ago there were several active discussion sites (worshiptalk.com, worshiptogether.com) about worship music. Today, there is not much, and this is perhaps the biggest; it must mean that there is divine favor on the Telecaster (but we already knew that).

By the way, Buck, I'm in the Valley too.
