I tried the naked eye along with a royer 122 and an aea 82. I thought the naked eye was fairly similar to the royer but less low end and a bit more upper mids. It works great on acoustic and electric guitars. The aea has a cool charater but there was always too much low end for me, it has more lows and highs and less mids than the ne. I kept the naked eye. I did try it on vox and it wasn't my favorite soloed but it sat the best in the mix. I usually don't use ribons on vox.

I'm finding more and more that everybody hears things differently, I really like the mic but its worth trying with another if you can.

Good luck.
