Probably midsize or smaller guitars are easier to record faithfully but their overall tone may not be your thing.
Also brighter sounding guitars can become screamingly bright by the time the microphones get done with them.
Much also depends on what type of music you are playing. Music that benefits from marked sympathetic vibrations
and longer sustains (such as in perhaps Celtic music) may record well with one type of guitar while a different type
of music would be more effectively recorded when played on a different type of guitar.
