I just got a KEL HM1 and am very impressed with it on acoustic guitar.

I have 2 of them and used them as drum o/h's..
I posted a clip a few weeks back. When I find the link I will post again.

I have a pair of HM-1s and use them mostly for drum overheads. They are wonderful for taming harsh cymbols, while bringing out a roundness in the toms.
I was not impressed (personally) with them on acoustic guitar , but they do well on micing a electric guitar cab (particularly small ones). On bright acoustic instruments like mandolin and acoustic violin they mics are excellent.

They are not good on most vocals either.

My opinion obviously.
