Did anyone try to mic a guitar through the new Bose S1?
Also... Is it worth to spend more on a mic if your going to use it on recordings also?

I want to try mic'ing before trying to install any pickup.
Something like sm57/81 through something like a headway edb-2 preamp/di with phantom power and notch filter.
No need to expend loads of money installing several pickups in different guitars. Just buy one mic (or 2)
I play solo instrumentals seated anyway.

The tonedexter does improve the fidelity, but the trade off seems to be a muffled sound.
Most of the guitarrists I like get great sound mic'ing their guitars.
I would rather spend less on a more plug'n'play pickup like trance amulet, baggs anthem/m80, than pickup + tonedexter. I think.
