Great! Thanks Ors! Pictures really help alot!

I have to say that I still prefer the sound of your first "mic'ed" recording due to more "woodiness" and the natural sound that I hear. Just me though. Both are good.

I agree Jeff. I don't think any pup can equal a condenser. But IMO the Dualie sounds as good as some pups that are 3X the price.

This will really show you how important placement is with an AST.

First Placement

New Placement

The first one was placed just below the horizontal Larrivee brace. The new placement is just outside the x brace on the bass side.

Oh boy, i can't bear thinking about drilling holes in any of my guitars but you did a nice job and by the way you play very nicely too...

Thanks poki!
Not that hard a job actually. If I can do it anyone can!

I definitely like the Second placement over the first. The first IMO had an almost "dobro" sound to it, while the second has more true acoustic "woodiness" and more "guitar-like" tonality IMO.

Interesting how a different placement can make such a big difference!
