[QUOTE="Caleb Dueck, post: 14804, member: 60"] Re: Acoustic guitar pickups Often when mixing, I could guess if the acoustic was a Taylor, Martin, or Larrivee (my favorite), or other. If it just sucked no matter what, it was usually a Tak. The best pickup I've heard was the KK Trinity system, with internal condenser along with pickup, 2 channels into the console. After a couple hours in the studio, the guitarist and I found the perfect angle/distance for the mic, and used that for the house, pickup for mons. To answer your question on how to make a cheap guitar with cheap pickups sound good - I don't know other than tweaking the EQ to make it 'less bad' and burying it in the mix where possible. [/QUOTE]
