| Some of the best AG tones I ever got were with an LCD like KM84 or AKG 460B near the 12th fret into a 1073 plus a Soundelux U95S (similar to a U47) out front thru a V76. Every AG has a different voice and a different "throat" so mic placement is always crucial. I'm blessed with many nice instruments ('73 Brazilian LoPrinzi, '48 J-45, '54 LG-1, 1994 Collings D2H) so finding one that works for the song usually isn't hard. Started trying ribbons (R-84, R121) on AG recently, the jury is still out.
