People probably spend more time and money on recording guitars than on any other instrument. From a bedroom acoustic guitar recorded into GarageBand to electric guitar amps, processors, processes, micing, modeling, even samples... the subject is both endless and endlessly challenging.
Even in a 50 minute stretch, A.S.S.R. only takes a bird's eye view and listen. We'd like this forum to become a place of continued exploration and experimentation. Tell us what you do, what you like, what you found helpful in this Section, what was missing!
I've read somewhere that I think it was Lynard Skynard used to lay their amps down and throw a few coats on them and record them that way. Marshall cabs have a step history of popular cabs. The early pinstripe ones that Hendrix used and a few others had that thick pinstripe grill cloth that shaved off some highs. Then next was basketweave and checker and so on. Each one a little more open than the previous. Point is that what sits between the speaker and the mic can make a huge difference also. A physical eq.
Read some other good info for home musicians. Put those extra mic stands to use and create a isolation box from thick blankets and mic stands. I read this also being done for a make shift vocal booth. Point is, with a little creativeness a feller can have some pro recorded sounds just using stuff you already have.
