It *is* a crappy sound, isn't it ? I think of it as the OPL3 of 
electroacoustics. :)

Well, a decent instrument costs more dinero than I ever have at any 
given time. Ditto for a decent mic. The guitar sounds just as bad 
through one of my mics anyway, it's a real POS.

I'm still on the lookout for a good preamp. I'm considering an M-Audio 
Omni I/O box, waiting for a great deal to show up on eBay. Maybe that 
could help the sound of the guitar too ?

As always, thanks for lending your ears, Paul. Btw, I loved Abby's voice 
on the track you posted recently, she's an excellent singer, recorded 
nicely.

Best,
