Maybe this might be of some assistance.

I've recorded a little (45MB) ProTools session that is two small pieces of electric guitar in the style of AC/DC and Led Zeppelin comparing the TelefunkenUSA M260 and the Shure SM57 recorded at the same time so you can switch back and forth by muting channels. If you don't have ProTools, you'll still be able to import the files into your DAW and line them up easily.

The chain is:
Telecaster > Orange Tiny Terror amp > Orange 2x12 Cab w/vintage 30's > Mic > Brent Averill 1073 (no EQ) > Apogee AD16X convertor.

Session is:
ProTools 7, Mac, WAV files, 24 Bit / 96kHz.
45MB.

I'll leave it up for a few days for those interested.

The M260 makes a great hi-hat or drum overhead mic too. I'll see if I can put something together and post samples soon.
