Looking for a higher end mic to record guitar cabs/amps.
Ive used sm57/58,ksm44.
Im looking at only using 1 mic {up-frt} to get the job done,the preamp Im using is a Sebatron 2000e.
Any "well known" mics in mind?

Writing about mics is like "dancing about architecture," as they say. But here goes:

I personally think both the KSM-44 and the 4050 are gems, and both are in the neutral and flexible category. However, for whatever reason, I tend to use the 44 at a slightly larger distance and appreciate its sense of focus from afar. In other words, it tends to make the source sound closer than it is. The 4050 seems more distance-neutral. Thus, I would use the 4050 for a close-in vocalist, and the 44 to capture an instrument that was a few feet away.
