| I'm looking for a decent recording/performance mic 
in the range of $400, for my archtop guitar.  I''ve found that I totally 
love the sound of this instrument miced at about 6" away from where the neck 
meets the guitar...very Derek Bailyesque. :)     I'm 
just using a cheap SM57 now and need a condensor mic with a wider range and 
fidelity. Any suggestions? The reviews of the Sure SM81 look good for 
acoustic.  I have used the Rode NT1s in the past too with good 
results. Kris p.s. I just recorded a sample recording 
of a chord-solo interpretation of "Alice in Wonderland".
