I wouldn't use the Laundry Room take, the guitar's too harsh sounding, but it could probably be tamed down a bit with some EQ. The close micing is of course the key if you don't have a good acoustical room. It may not be ideal for all desired sounds, but it works. I actually find spaced pairs to be more forgiving than XY - spaced pairs are what I use for my you tube videos, which are also shot in an untreated room, and I think some of the room sound gets lost in the more spacious sound of the spaced pairs. But of course, it all varies.
