With a huge number of inexpensive condensor mics on the market now, are there
any that are considered a good choice for a flatpicked/strummed acoustic guitar

I'm way out of touch with all the new mics out lately...

Are there any large diaphragm mics that you folks would recommend?

The Oktave MC012s are well regarded as bang-for-the-buck, but I haven't been
very happy about the sound of them on fine guitars...

Next step up would be the Josephson Series Four, or the Audio-Technica AT 4053,
or maybe the Neumann KMS184. A lot more detail on a good guitar, without
being harsh. Probably the Neumann is the harshest of the three, even.
