There are several BIG differences that don't lend easily to "flip the
switch". Actually,
guitars, mics, and syths ALL are so different that very liitle is common.

I still want to do a good mic pre: I bought all these high $$$ Burr-Brown
instrumentation amps
and AD820 super whiz-bang FET op amps for the servos.

The guitar pre has a VERY high input impedance (like 1M) and uses a VERY $$$
Linear Tech
current-mode op amp (like $12ea!) with a LT1010 current booster for pure
Class A excitement.
