Intrigued with the idea of amping sound of 10 string baritone acoustic guitar after hearing radio shack version of this mic in doug youngs pickup review. Tried various placements around soundhole. Ended up with 2 mics on extra strength velcro dots just inside hole & on both sides of strings, pointing up at strings. 2 mics sound more open, with better harmonics & transients. Good acoustic guitar sound with that electric aliveness & sustain. Both mics input to m-audio audiobuddy with separate vol pots to mix feed into home stereo system. Strong, clear low B & bass notes. Lotsa fun on michael hedges pieces. Great if amping needs are moderate. No hum but feedback & hiss if u push it. Good and cheap for the home player. Sounds clearer than newer version.
