Hi, I'm working on recording acoustic guitar and vocals using my zoom R16 track recorder. transferring them to Cubase 5 then editing, mixing mastering etc... My issue is getting my Acoustic Guitar to sound like it does when I play it live or through my fishman solo amp. I've tried all kinds of mics, room treatments, set up etc...

Folks,

Please can someone help me in the selection of an affordable (200- 300 $)
mic for recording acoustic guitar at home.

I am looking at

AT4041 (SDC)
RODE NT5 (SDC)
Shure SM81 (SDC)

I am also looking at some stereo SDC mics or any other affordable stereo mics. Would stereo makes help in the first place?
