| i've got the pendulum box which is great , with fishman gold plus + baby akg mics installed
in most of my guitars......
what's strange is the cheap nylon string guitar with this setup actually
can be recorded and the tracks cut real well and sound very balanced
even with no external mic........
as soon as it steel strings on the lowden
or the martin - it's great for shows, but, we
rarely use any of the d.i. signal - it's all
about the mic in front of the guitar......
so if it's gotta be d.i.
i'd go with a nylon string guitar
while it's more than you want to spend,
the gibson chet atkins nylon string
always sounded good to me,
but you can't play it accoustically......
be well
