How To Mic an Amped Guitar - for Recording
Legendary Guitarist Elliott Randall speaks to leading London Engineer Wes Maebe about how to best capture the sound of an amped guitar for recording. They discuss front and rear amp mic'ing, phase issues and different ways to capture a full solo guitar sound.
Elliott and Wes use a Shure 57 Unidyne on the front of the amp, testing out different locations. However, adding a second mic can build atmosphere in the recording – though one needs to be aware of possible phase issues. Wes shows how picking up sounds from the cabinet itself can really add an edge to a recording. Taking this step means experimenting with both mic location and where to place the pick-up patterns. Wes is using an Advanced Audio CM67, inspired by Neumann's U67 design and specifications. Elliott has written this article on Mic placement with a Marshall amp:
