Is the Eric Johnson as bright as a Jimmie Vaughan?

Can anyone compare the Eric Johnson and Jimmie Vaughan Strats for brightness? Can the EJ get down and dirty?

Hm?

Without access to their qualifications/IQ it would be hard to be certain. Oh you mean the guitars!

EJ/JV Brightness

I know some folks have said the EJ Strat is bright guitar, but I haven't found that to be the case with mine.

At any rate, roll off the treble and it'll get low down and dirty.

Mine's Not

My JV is not what I would consider a bright sounding guitar. The neck pup is thick and balanced. The bridge get's bright but not tele bright. I haven't messed with the height adjustment but I'm sure I could get it to be very bright.
