Direct me on a good mic

Can you direct me to buy a good mic to capture my guitar sound.

I just got an engl savage and need an affordable $$$$ mic. my budget for it max is 300 euros.

I think he said "equipment" because he moved the thread from Production Tips to Equiment-subforum.

I would highly recommend (like everyone else) a SM57, to that note good condensers are KSM27 and MD421 if you can put down that kind of money, but a 57 with a good preamp will be tits.

57

And...isn't the md421 a dynamic mic?

 

[TheWinterSnow]

it is, i forgot to separate that after i mentioned the KSM27

I have an mp3 of guitar riffing on a 5150 through a custom 1x12 cabinet with a Celestion G12H30. Recorded with Karma K58 tube condenser through a Manley TNT preamp with a Distressor. But I don't know how to attach it here. :Smug:
