Years of looking up what kind of gear people use to create specific sounds and being familiar with the signature tones for many guitars. Once you know it, you'll almost always be able to pick out a Strat neck pickup or a Tele bridge pickup. For the most part, I can tell the Fender guitars (Stratocaster, Telecaster, Jaguar, Jazzmaster) apart, some of the Gibsons and I usually know when it's a hollow body guitar. When it's a hollow body (like Kabukicho), I generally have to look up which kind the guitarist plays.
