Nick Drakish ,guitar is a Gibson j30 which i want to sound big and
warm I,m going to hire the mikes so u47,s Royers,87,s are all
possibilities thanks for any ideas.julian

I'd suggest using a condenser on the guitar rather than a ribbon, as ribbons
don't do the 'sparkly" thing too well.

Use either a ribbon or a condenser on the vocal depending on what suits the
voice.

I'v had really good sucess with this using an M49 for guitar and a B&O
ribbon on the vocal. HEAPS of isolation, nice fat vocal sound and big
juicy guitar tone as well.
