Default Fishman LB Mini question

Has anyone ever tried to run a magnetic pickup on guitar into channel 1, then run a decent mic on the guitar into channel 2? So basically the guitar sound is being reproduced two different ways? Or am I crazy?

Any opinions are welcome.

Yes I’ve tried it with a SM57 into the mic channel. Works well.

Thank you! I'm going to give it a shot tonight after work. The current UST in the guitar is driving me nuts

While not an external mic or the LB mini, I used to run a Fishman Rare Earth Mic Blend with a TRS cable to both channels on on a Loud Box Artist (1 for Mag, 2 for the bendy mic inside).

Worked very well.
I would say it would work well with an external mic too.

Sometimes in the past when I’d record into my Scarlet Focusrite I’d have one channel be my pickup and the other be a condenser mic on the guitar.

Post prod the blending made for a great reproduction.

A mic certainly sounds different than a pickup. I'm sure lots of people do it.
