| Pictures of Mic'ed up GUITAR CABS Thought I should start a thread about something like this. I originally had a TLM 103 accompanied with the 57 but took it off. 57 alone won on this take! 45 degrees facing a few inches away from the cone. Post your pics of your various setups on this thread Jason

| Wow! What a radical approach! How'd you come up with that mic technique?! (just kidding....)Goes to show that sometimes the tried and true is that way for a reason!

| Distorted high gain gtr I like to poke an AKG D112 into the "handle hole" on the side of a 4 x 12. Then run that through a foucusrite 215 channel - eq out the "honk" and boost the 'fizz' . At times it adds a cool quazi ambient metalic shred to the regular mic (s) on the front. |

| Call me crazy but I've never really liked the sound of a mic right up on the speaker. Must have tried it a thousand times and I always seem to move it back a few feet at least to let the sound develop. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think it was Jimmy Page who said "distance = depth" and it seems like a good measuring stick to start with. |

| Gear nut | Hey Michael, I recently bought a Royer 122, what's aproximatively the distance in the picture from the speaker ? Michele |

| "For your pleasure" - hey what a great title for an album! I'm pretty old school - a 57 or 421 seems to work most of the time. I'll sometimes set up a room mic but rarely use much of it in the final mix. |

| An older photo before getting my 121s. I get most of my e-git sounds nowadays with Royer 121s (cone center, like MW, often turned slightly to the left or right) and older 57s, with the occasional 421 now and then. Usual e-git mic pres : EMI Chandler TG2, Neve 1073 or 1089, SSL J, API. In this pic : Ampeg SVT2Pro and H810, various vintage Fenders, a Vox AC30 from Lenny Kravitz, various Marshall heads, a Rectifier head and Mesa 2x12 cab, a couple of JCM800 4x12 cabs and a Soldano HotRod100+. And a few pedals. |

| Sub, What the hell is on top of the little Marshall? I heard Bob Mould from Husker Du/Sugar used to record all his guitars through a series of super small amps. Not sure if that's true or just a rumor. Bobby Peru Milwaukee, WI |

As it happens, Grant Hart's booking agent gave it to me along with the little red Marshall 1x10 for driving up to help him out on a tracking session while I was on vacation. Actually, everything in that picture was given to me, including the LittleLabs re-amp box driving the rig, thanks to the GS giveaway contest and the winning answer - Michael Wagener. It seems all guitar amp threads lead back to Michael Wagener...

| The "Slipperman Method" in action. What the pic doesn't show you are the 115dB's screaming thru the room. |

| Martin, Compared to for example a Marshal 4x10, they are a little more broadband (deeper lows, more extend in the highs) and more dynamic. They give a slightly less midrange feel, great for hardrock, metal kinda stuff. Greetings, Dirk
