Hey guys, I'm going to be doing a demo for this band in about a week or so and they play metal ala Opeth (well from what I can tell from their "boombox in the middle of the room" recordings at least) with a lot of heavy parts and some acoustic parts as well. I don't have very much experience recording acoustic guitars and was wondering some mic placement tips and mixing tips that you guys had? The distored guitar tips on the forum helped so much so I figured you guys would know about this too. I think the best mics I have for the job would be 2 SM81's that I usually use for overheads on drums.
Any advice is appriciated! Thanks!
