Re: Micing a guitar cabinet, your favorite tecniques
I think the 57's are universally one of the top mics for guitar recording, i tend to use the 57 to close mic off axis one of the bottom speakers and because it was avaliable a Neuman U89 about 12" back, mic'ing the centre of the cab, then mix the signals, the U89 is about 70% of the sound and the 57 adds the top end and the higher frequency "responsiveness" of a valve amp.
