Hmmm, and here I thought people like Hendrix (among others) where using M-160's for e-guitar on a regular basis over 35 years ago...

The 121 is indeed a killer dirt guitar mic though I do tend to place it in tandem with some kind of dynamic cardioid (421, e604, 57, etc). Personaly, I've never been able to get anything I liked out of it where vocals were concerned... at least not yet anyway.
