Proper Classical Guitar Technique

for recording my classical guitar

Overall I am pleased with the lens. With proper technique you can get good sharp images, but it is necessary to set up properly, e.g., if using a tripod make sure that image stabilization is off. You also need to be sure you are using a reasonably fast shutter speed, probably at least 1/500 sec. The image stabilization seems to be quite effective when handholding, although I generally prefer to use a tripod with such a long lens. The only negative I have noticed so far is that it is front heavy, i.e., the tripod foot seems to be too far back to fully balance the lens when on a tripod. I added an Arca-swiss mount to the foot and think it would be really great if manufacturers added that option to all lenses with a foot. Five stars for the value from price and performance.

Perfect fit in my Cordoba classical guitar and very fast delivery. You couldn't for better service.

been using this with a pair of MXL CR21 mics to record classical guitar, paired with these mics it captures the finest of details with crystal clear quality, my only complaint is the lack of stock from being sold out but from my experience only takes around 5 weeks from a backorder which is not bad

I placed it carefully inside my classical guitar where it connects to the pre-amp in addition to the pick-up that it comes with. It works very nicely as it grabs the sound echoed by the guitar itself to complement the sound from the strings on the saddle.

This is my first time to buy a foot stool because I'm not really a classical guitar player. I just need one just to record one of my songs for which I play classical guitar. So I'm not familiar with foot stools, but I think this is very much good enough for my use, so I'm happy with it. And it was a good price for me, too.

I mainly record Pipe Organ and other classical type music from all guitar to a full orchestra if necessary...and even an occasional thunderstorm complete with hail! With the volume set right and you put the headphones on and take them off, the sound is basically identical. They are comfortable, fold up and one serious plus to me is the 3 different types of wire feeds a coiled cord, a long straight cord and a short one when it is used in close quarters. This is an excellent set of headphones for the money, I recommend them pretty highly.

The C411pp produces a reasonably accurate reproduction of the sound of my O-hole mandolin and classical guitar. The signal is strong (I set the guitar below unity), giving me plenty of headroom on my mixer. The pickup goes on easily and comes off easily. I wish the putty was a little less sticky; you have to be careful to get if all off the surface of the instrument.

Works very well on my Cordoba nylon string classical guitar. Firm pressure, grip is effective but doesn't damage anything. Easy to use.

The C3000 is my main mic, I use it on acustic instruments as Classical, Acustic and Portuguese Guitar,and also on Vocals and as a room mic. It sounds closer to what you hear in the room then any other mic, with a smooth top end to help you to get warm vocals.
