100 means identical on that spec. The score weighs these, and counts anything we couldn't compare as a typical difference. How scoring works
Not compared: brightness, mids, bass (a spec is missing for at least one of them).
“Getting a shot of Alnico 5 power, the lows are punchy and the highs are crisp.”
“I hear some players suggest the Emerald bridge highs are really bright.”
“Lows are big and full and on the verge of punchy, but not loose or muddy.”
“The high end has bite and edge and tinkers with the idea of being sharp, but eases up before going too far.”
