when I hear constant white noisy top frequencies it's instant NO for me.
For me it's like replacing something musical with noise.

could you tell how i might get away from this effect? should i low pass further? the only eq on the guitars is a hp70/lp10k. its possible its the limiter i used on the master buss thats adding the distortion.

just for anyone curious who has the same issue with there being too much hiss on the guitar, i believe the issue is that i have the gain fairly cranked on my preamp (i'm recording in an upstairs apartment) so i have to play with the volume under 1.5 without blowing up the neighbors. maybe with some better preamps or a torpedo and maybe even something like a cloudlifter? i might be able to get a cleaner signal at lower volumes.

i reduce the presence knob with good results. 3-3.5. and for sure the right mic pos. is the key

Most cases it's because of too much gain and micing (tube screamer could help there too). But Also pickups could be involved.
Most cases if I hear that noise I better have less gain than hear that nasty noise.

next time i mic it up ill shoot for less presence, i have it somewhat higher than usual right now.

yeah its my interface preamp then, i have the gain cranked on it.
