Which would logically give more emphasis by corresponding proximity to lower notes in the upper mic and highs to the lower mic based on how the guitar is strung. And then panning the two to get a stereo spread. It is something I am going to try.
Yeah, I think the idea is the same in each case - have the stereo image span the strings instead of being neck on one side, lower bout on the other. The 815C approach is coincident, this approach is spaced pairs. I suspect there's a reason we don't see this approach commonly used, but it's always good to try new things. Let us know how it works for you, maybe I'll give it another try as well.
