If the guitar is the only thing on stage, give the dpa 4099G a spin, but as
Nate has corroborated (after I told him he would), it's a mic, if your guitar
playing is quiet relative to something noisier near you (or you're singing),
th DPA 4099G will pick that up as well, not always flatteringly.

So you kinda say that my KSM 141/137 or Neumann 102 idea might be usable? -
yes, I know, promised to write the "how I would record", it is not quite
done yet.

If you're sitting down and don't express yourself much, but I think a good
pickup on an acoustic that might not sound as good as the mics you mention
are a small price to pay for being able to move around.

if you're sitting and don't move, you can put some kind of buffle.
Could help with couple db
of separation. You could put some kind of foam funnel/ wrapping over a
mic to,
hopefully, make it more directional and comparativly more sensitive in
direction.

As much as I appreciate the M&K's in my acoustic guitars, I'm happy not
to move around if that gets me to the audience via the Schoeps. In a
decent venue with a good operator there is no comparison and it allows
me to sound different from all those folks just using pickups. People
notice the difference, even if the average listener doesn't know the why
of it.

I thought we were talking about playing out. In the studio, I'd use a
schoeps.

I was talking about playing out. If recording is so
important, sound of guitar, and he does not move much,
he can do things to make that recording better, like
buffle, or whatever.

A Baffle....well that sort of depends on how much stage you have and how much
you want to be seen. I have used a Schoeps on a dobro in live performance and
it was totally amazing, but the thought of seeing a Schoeps drop to the stage
due to careless handling makes most people not want to use them. You also
want to keep sticky fingers away from them.

I can't really use any gobos on a live thing.... and I have no
problem bringing the schoeps with me, I just thought the dpa would be
better because i can get it closer to the guitar. i think i was
wrong.

It could be transparent one, on a side towards drums...
Just an idea, why not?
also, I had another one, about "shield" arround the mic.
That one don't take of usefull space.
