Thumbs up Check this out! Made new "Nylon Guitar Mic" trick.

Someone told me that I should put my Mic inside my Nylon stung classical and folk guitars. The problem was that the Mic kept catching the vibration from the wood of the guitar's body, kinda like feedback. So this is what I came up with. Thinking on the same line as soundhole pickup,I cut a small piece of a wire coat hanger and looped it once around a Mic. Then I twisted two loops around the ends of the coat hanger and put some tape on them so it wouldn't scratch my guitars surface. The end result is that I can put the Mic in the soundhole of the guitar and the end loops of the coat hanger wire holds it nicely in place. And the Mic is not get any "vibrating feedback" because its not on the bottom of the guitar. Now that the Mic is at the soundhole level and I get a WAY better sound. This set up for my Nylon strung guitar is better then having the Mic on a stand for recording and live playing. I hope this tip helps someone else out too!
