Recording Electro-Acoustic Guitar Problem

[psneddon]

I was advised by another forum member to record my electro-acoustic both direct and by mic and to mix it. However, I have tried different mic positions and pick up alot of what I can only describe as 'pick noise' (e.g. chink-a-chink-chink) from my playing.

I am recording using a AKF 870 Dynamic Mic (not the best I know).

Any advice.

Regards,
Paul

Dynamic mics are not that good for acoustic guitar. Condensors are better for picking up the low end and giving you a smoother high end.
