Getting a Bigger Guitar Sound

How to get a bigger guitar sound by using 2 guitars a 57 and a ribbon mic. Layering electric guitar parts for more weight, depth, and dimension to the existing parts. I’m not adding parts to just add more tracks, it does have a purpose, adding depth and texture.

I’ll be micing and recording my Marshall JCM800 100 Watt Amp with a 4X12 Marshall Cabinet. Mics I’ll be using are the Shure SM57 and the Sterling ST170 Ribbon Mic.

Recording and Mixing Acoustic Guitars

Recording acoustic guitar doesn’t have to be difficult or hard. In this video, I show you how I got these guitars to get the right sound for this song/track. Using Pro Tools, IK Multimedia Black 76, and Waves Schepps 73 EQ.
