this is my little 12 fret parlor guitar, stringed with elixer nanoweb 0.12 tuned a half step down for better resonation. i use one tube condenser mike at 20 cm pointed somewhere between the 12th fret and the soundhole on the trebleside of the guitar. this guitar have a round sound from its self, other guitars like a dread or OM would sound more crisp.

thank you. i've been playing around a lot with this stuff just to get that sound right. sometimes i use a second mike at the bridge for more detail, but i like the one close mike best.

This is really nice

Only thing that stood out to me (because i used to do it!) you say "fings" and not "things"

Probably not a problem...i know i just spent a lot of time amking sure i didnt do it when singing as it felt so natural to me but always got picked out by people
