Son has just sent me this from France (as .wav) .

All I have done is bumped it up a few dB to average neg 20 and convert to highest Q MP3.

The guitar is a concert classical type, made locally and cost him €2,000. The room is sparsely furnished with a wood block floor and about as big he says as our living room at Npton, so about 1800cuft.

Anyone like to have a stab at the microphone type?

I would guess not a condenser due to the lack of crisp high end frequencies but....

I'm gonna +1 Steen's guess.

Interesting! There is in fact a bit of stuff out to 14kHz or so but it is gutstrung remember. Twenty to one here so I shall be pitting soon. All will be revealed later.

Thanks for listening and the comments.

Dave.
 
Are allowed to know how far the mike was from the guitar?
 
Ok! FFS stop the torrent of guesses! I give in.

It was a ProSound 40quid USB capacitor. I had it apart at home, cheap as chips the mic capsule was about 20mm.

I really can't tell, hence the post but son thinks it sounds ok?

Dave.
 
It sounds fine, but there's an awful lot of noise.
That was part of the reason I guessed dynamic (on a budget interface).
