Can you hear the difference between a Fender Telecaster and a Gibson Les Paul if both guitars have the exact same Pickups, setup, strings and wiring?

A fun little experiment in the great debate over where the tone comes from.

yeah, it's a refreshing exercise in that it shows there's a distinct impact on the sound from the physical design of the guitar without invoking tone wood discussions.
