Hi
I'm new around here and was trying to wade through the microphone jungle and come out with something that might work in my situation. I'm looking to record some solo Atkins finferstyle guitar amongst other things, i've tried recording off the internal pickups on my acoustic guitar, they are amongst the best i can find but they work o.k on stage but when it comes to recording it seems another matter. I was looking for a high quality mic that might suit this application, any ideas? I have a top notch dual channel valve preamp feeding a Calrec 1549 clone dual channel 4 band parametric. Do i need to push the boat out and spend big money or would something like the Octavia's or Marshall work ok. I notice Shure and Beyer mics dont get much of a mention around here is there anything ok in that range?
So many questions, so many mics.Help!
