Short acoustic jazz guitar - mix advice

Very nice feel and organic sound in the lead playing.

The backing tracks sound very electric and artificial in comparison. Replace them immediately with ac bass and ac rhythm gtrs with no effects.:D

Just for interest, what gtr/mic/mic position/pre were used for the lead?
 
XLR

Glad that you like the lead playing.

The backing guitar tracks are the same acoustic guitar as the lead, with a chorus plug-in.
I only have electric bass, however I could reduce the drive from the sansamp DI. That makes the sound more thin, and ...well like a DI bass guitar!

Interesting, because I was probably going to reach for some electric guitars next, and move the tune in that direction....

Lead recording chain:
Yamaha FG340 (1979)--> Shure KSM109-->DMP3-->JoemeekVC3Q
Mic about 6" from the 12th fret.

Thanks,
mcmd
