I need some quick help on some mics

[guitardude]

Hello all,

I'm trying to purchase a mic that will record good vocals and acoustic guitar.

Here are my options so far. Sterling ST55, AKG perception 200....AT3035.

What you think what is the best bang for my buck????

thanks.

I've been using a pair of AKG Perception 200's for stereo acoustic guitar recording and the same mic for vocals....I love them...

I've been using a Perception 200 for a couple of months, and I do like it, but it has a very "up-front" sound. Unless that's the sound I'm looking for, I'm reaching for different mics for vocals.

Cool guys. Does anyone own the ST 55 from Sterling??? The dudes from guitarcenter love this mic...is it because they get more money for selling these things?

the perception comes with a nice case too...i still need some more opinons!

Get a pair of MSH-1s from Naiant while they're still on sale for the guitar.

Sterling is Groove Tubes, rebranded.

Search for reviews of the GT-55 (should be the same mic under the old name)
