Sorry, but it's a client work in progress, and Neville was asked to do a vocal
track. Perhaps when it is finished, I'll ask the author.

Hi Sean,
What stile of acoustic guitar do you play? Do you have any recordings that
I can listen to?
May the Peace of God which passes all understanding guard your heart and
mind in Christ Jesus. God bless you!

Hi Manny,
Yes it does make a big difference.
Most times I mic an acoustic and stay away from using the pickup on
sessions. Key words here are most times...
You will have to consider what genre of music your recording, and how much
the song is carried by the acoustic. If the acoustic plays a big part in the
song, and the genre of music is folk or country for example, you will be better
off using microphones. If you are recording hard rock or something, where the
acoustic just lends a little color to the song, then you may want to think
about recording from the pickup, or taking a track of the pickup and
microphone.
Most times I stereo mic acoustics, and pan each mic hard right and left,
but maybe that's more than you want to get into at this point?
Mic selection and placement on acoustic instruments is an area which I have
explored heavily for many years, and I can offer some worthwhile thoughts on
this subject if need be. And I'll try to do so without just sending one word
emails which don't contain any substance...

Hi all,
Many over here with a quick question. When recording an
acoustic guitar, is it better to use a microphone or the pickup on it. Does it
make a difference when recording an acoustic strum compared to lead rifts.
Thanks,
manny
