Default Recordind acoustic guitar (GUILD F65CE) through condenser mike and piezo DI

Here is my result

I placed the mike (Audio Technica condenser) as close to the guitar as possible because my room is not adapted for acoustic recording. Then I mixed appr. 60/40 with piezo D

Congratulations on your choice of guitar. The F65ce is an all-time keeper AFAIC. I own one. Your recording sounds pristine. Your playing is tasteful too. For my playing, 40% piezo would be a bit much. But you obviously know your room, mic., and what you can get away with.

I don't know much about recording an acoustic, the proper balance between your mic and piezo, or even your Guild. But I do know music that I like, and I LIKE this!

Sounds great to me! I like the green Guild too. Don't see many of those around these parts.

Good job on the recording.
