I've got one (and I like it...it's a great mic) but like the similar, twice as expensive DPA, the mounting method and location leaves a lot to be desired. First, getting the mount tight on the guitar is tricky and usually takes me 2 or 3 attempts. I certainly couldn't see using one on multiple instruments on stage. Second, if you play slap or artificial harmonics or use right hand-fingering then the mic just gets in the way.
For both of the above reasons I prefer to use an AT Pro 70...with the addition of a "cough switch" or mic mute (which the DPA or Meridian would also need) it's quick and easy to transfer the mic between instruments on stage AND is completely out of the way for a fingerstyle player.
My 2c...and here's your change!
