Guitar cabinet mic stand. Using a mic stand or an alternative mic ing solution more on those later start with a dynamic mic 1cm to 3cm away from the grille pointing halfway between the centre and the edge of the speaker. Carefully position your mic for the best tone by buying a mic stand for your guitar mic. This gave me lots of flexibility. Don and i spent hours experimenting with mic positions on cabinets read about it in my article the importance of mic placement for guitar amps and used that research to guide our mic placement on the prs j mod cabinet starting with the sm57 patched into a chandler limited tg channel mark ii mic preamp we determined.

The amplifier settings are shown in the photos below. For example if you re searching for multiple stands in order to ensure everyone in your group as their own separate stand start with the musician s gear tripod mic stand with fixed boom 10 pack. As to why this mic is so adored on electric guitar one theory is that the low end rolloff at 200hz compensates well for the proximity effect from close miking a guitar cabinet. A minimal investment compared to all your other guitar gear can yield drastic improvements in your tone.

But regardless of why the shure sm57 is so insanely popular on electric guitar and so cheap that it s the only option i recommend for beginners.
