    It rolls off fairly quickly after 5K, so probably 3k-5K But adding several db of 13K shelving can do wonders.

    Swap tone controls for treble/bass controls?

    Need advice on condenser mic and pre-amp

    have you considered a Ribbon mic? Maybe a Seventh Circle N72 Pre and a AEA R92 ribbon. If you can't stretch $$$ for this then possibly look at a Fat Head.

    Line out Vs. Miking the amp
