Yeah I read a little more in the other thread. It's a really nice sound. how low did you tune with those thick strings? Whole step?

I'm doing the final voicing of the mic and I want to get it right. About the last thing I'm thinking about is live guitar plus singing. A lot of folks like to do that, and don't want to track. The classical solution is figure eight ribbon or condenser with the guitar mic null pointed at the singer and the vocal mic null pointed at the guitar.

Can't go figure eight in this SDC design, but could go hypercardioid. Might try that. If pointed slightly down you could get the vocal in the null. Then use LDC for vocal on figure eight.

We've been using XY on the prototypes at the body neck juction for tests, but it can be a little wide. Bad if the player moves much too.
But then one can pan them a little toward center or elsewhere (not all the way to mono, just a little) to control it if needed.

I'll pm you.
