recording help for amateur guitarist

Greetings,
I've been writing and recording acoustic guitar songs for some time. However, I don't understand the technical points of recording and often find my songs sounding far from professional. I'm looking for suggestions.
Here are two songs I recorded in the last few months:

Recording Bass Guitar (tips?) / using Line 6 Effects Process

Im new to recording. I am looking to record bass, guitar, and drums in a few days, but i have never recorded bass. How would I get the best quality. I have my hands on a borrowed line 6 bass effects processor. Should I just direct input to the board, then bus to the effects processor, or would it make sense to use a large diaphragm condenser mic on the amp also?

Acoustic guitar

Hi

i am about to start recording a project that will be mainly finger picked quiet guitar and vox.

My Neumann M149 which I was hoping to use has developed a fault and its gonna take a couple of weeks at least to get back from the servive center.

I am going to take the plunge and purchase my 2nd "high quality" (or maybe 3rd as i also own an AKG414) condensor mic.

Recording guitar/bass/vocals in my room

Hello all! I'm a guitarist and a songwriting, and have only been really recording my songs on my little tape recorder so I don't forget them. I'd like to set up a system where I could record my guitar/bass/vocal tracks digitally to my computer.

I'm pretty familiar with Audacity, so I'm planning on using that for my mastering software.
