I was hoping someone would mention that...

the playing is fine. The guitar sounds great to the ear.
Again, the problem is, no matter what configuration i try, i need to
pout the mics withing 6 inches of the guitar otherwise it sounds bad.
So i think i'm missing some of the 'sound?' of the whole guitar, as it
would sound if you sat a few feet in front of it.

i didn't mean to insult the playing...

my point was that the playing and the mic LOCATION are much more
important compared to the exact model of mic...
except for the choice of omni vs non omni that is also major...


if you have 2 tracks, record one of each and mix to taste.
