Dear All … this is a TTK Style Shoot-Out, where you get to decide which amp microphone is best for you!Β Watch the video first, then decide which one you like.Β When you’re done watching the video … scroll down to see which mic is which.Β I hope you enjoy the video.
Okay … are you ready for the answer?

Here are some pictures of the set-up :
TTK Jr. helping me set-up the shoot, b/c he loves this stuff about as much as I do π !!
Channel 1 / Mic 1 = Sennheiser e609 (taped to keep it in place).Β The ‘dangle’ thing doesn’t work quite as well as you’d think.Β It needs a little bit of tape to keep it in place!
The handy dandy Shure SM57
The set-up.
Moments before the shoot – TTK Jr. givin’ ya one of them bad boys right there!Β BTW – Guitar is a Rico Jr. Gary Holt Sig Series Vixen w/ Seymour Duncan BlackOuts.
Back of the head and cabs.Β I even used the same exact speaker cable for both hook-ups.
Another shot, right before the shoot.
Another shot, showing a bit more detail on mic placement, and the BBE Supa Charger, and my handy dandy Korg PitchBlack tuner (don’t leave home w/ out em’)
These shot were taken AFTER I changed mic placement, so you can see how I had everything set-up.
