I play mostly clasical/instramental/ambient style guitar...
The mic would be used for 90% guitar (5% dulcimer/mandaline)
and 5% vocal.
The type of sound I love is the "David Wilcox" style of smooth
original fingerpicking with true solid lows. For those of you who may not have heard of Dave, it's alot like James Taylor (with respect to the guitar part). So it would be really important to
me that the mic preserve as much of the low frequencies as
possible.
I have electric/acoustic guitars but I have a problem with sqeeking when I slide and (especially on my Ovation with the under bridge wire pickup) the squeek is unbearable....
I am going to try some fingerEase first, then flat wound strings, and depending on how all that goes.... I may still need a mic.
Price range would be under $200....
I was looking through the posts to this group but it's
pretty overwhelming for someone who has no clue about
microphones. But I do want to learn....
Thanks all
