Recently did a session and the engineer placed a vintage Coles ribbon mic about 12" in front of my old Martin D-35's sound hole. "It's going to be boomy" I informed him. "Sounds good in here" he replied. He was right, it sounded sick. That means good yo. He'd been doing this for a while, and now I'm looking for an old Coles.
