I had 20 minutes free so I tried to record a quick riff. Here is my first attempt. Here is my configuration:

Alvarez Masterworks MG60CESHB


PreSonus Studio 24c Interface

AKG P170 Condenser Microphone

PreSonus Studio One Artist v6

Microphone was pointed straight on at the 12th fret about 12 inches away. This was a quick snippet of Nirvana’s About a Girl.

It appears I need to work on my microphone levels and potentially use a different mic placement. I do have two AKG P170 microphones lying around so one of my future experiments will be putting the two mics in a XY configuration. Stay tuned!
