How to capture the tone of an AC30?

Hi there,

I have just received a beautiful JMI AC30 from the mid 60ies.
Needless to say, I love its tone.

But I'm having a hard time to capture it.

Would you mind sharing some proven techniques of micing an AC30?

I'm not really lacking mics - the classics are there:
- 421
- 441
- AKG D12
- AKG D19
- U47 fet
- M269c
- a bunch of odd ball ribbons (no Royer R121 tho)

I'm not short on preamps either.

Thanks heaps in advance.


Michael
