Using cardioid mikes I am usually sitting about one third of the way from a wall and facing the wall so that the microphones are pointing away from the wall. The guitar sound does bounce off that wall but it is coming back towards the rear of the microphones where they are less sensitive. However you could do it the other way with good results. Experiment.
