Honestly I rarely find condensers that I love on electric guitar. Some of them are great, but most aren't. The only ones I outright love oddly enough are omnis like Earthworks. Sometimes a 421 works however.

I really like ribbons on electric guitar. If I have my pick I take something like a Royer 121, but since this is the low end, the Cascade Fatheads are an amazing deal.

While also not a condenser, and e609 does things on an amp that a 57 doesn't do at all.
