You shouldn't feel like an old man for wantinging to be professional.

I love love love my ml52 ribbon. I use it about 3 feet off amp cabinets with a tube mic about 6 to 10 feet off and get really awesome guitar sounds. That is about the best use I've found for it, puts my 57 to shame every time. I also like it as a room mic for drums in addition to some nice overheads...

I was recording some percussion tracks the other night with my drummer & we were having a really hard time getting his tracks to lock up with the rest of the song. We finally realized that since the mic was ten feet off of the tamborine, it was going to the computer late. We moved the track a little...

Fender Princeton Reverb, silverface. These amps sound very nice with everything I've put through them from Pedal Steel (very high output pickups) to baritone guitar (really large low-end for a 8" speaker). You can find one for well under 600, and the best part, they're lightweight!

I need to get a Headphone amp. The little Rolls unit I have distorts terribly. I'd like to have some flexibility in the unit. I'm looking at the Behringer Powerplay for 99 bucks at Musicians Friend. Any other suggestions under 200?
Thanks!

try putting a piece of paper over the snare head when you're brushin'

I miked up a ladder once, then we had four folks beat on it with drumsticks. very Tom Waits.
