Which do you prefer and why?
3 mics, all more or less in the same spot approximately 28" in front of my guitar. The files are 24 bit 48k mono and unprocessed. I will say that with very minimal EQ I was able to make them all sound extremely similar. Similar enough that any of the three would be acceptable.
The room is reasonably neutral, but ultimately not the same room in which I would be doing any serious recording. It is my mix room and so some of the ambient sound you hear is the fan from the computer.

Then I'll tell you which mics they are.

3 has a presence peak that sounds plastickey - almost like a good peizo.
2 seemed the most balanced but bass-shy. My first choice.
1 is nice, but there's something a bit dissonant about it. There's
a bit of a lo-mid peak to it.
I imagine any of the three would sound different when being moved an inch.
