1st attempt

Guitar is right off of my bench and the finish and glues are barely dry, I thought while it comes into it's own, I'll get a feel for the process of mic placement, setting gains, etc. In CoolEdit I slightly reduced hiss and added reverb, I think in the future I'll back off the reverb a bit.

2 Sennheiser e914's = Presonus Blue Tube Pre = Fostex CR500

You should put this in the MP3 CLINIC. You'll get more responses.

One at the upper fretboard, the other at the lower bout below the bridge, both about 6 inches away.

RAMI, noted. Won't do with this post, but will with the next one.

Sounds good here too.

Although, MySpace really messes with the sound of MP3s. Try uploading the MP3 at a higher bitrate here: www.lightningmp3.com

I think for judging sound, especially on acoustic guitar, it's important to have a good quality MP3 to listen to. I'd make a 192 KBPS MP3 and upload it to that site.
