Yes, I've also had varying results recording acoustic guitar. The guitar mentioned above is recorded by putting an Audio Technica AT2020USB mic about a foot from the sound hole. It gives a nice booming base if done just right and later editing out the slide squeaks. But I live in a very active and noisy city so when the jackhammers startup I turn to the Cordoba 55FCE with two mics built in and connect it via Apogee JAM with USB. Then I put on headphones and cocoon into the DAW. Again the gain and settings are touchy to keep the squeaks from ruining things. I hate to give in to the cheap electric Epiphone I bought but is required occasionally. I bought it along with the Fishman Tripleplay intending to use it for MIDI because I am better at guitar than keyboard. But that doesn't interpret 4-finger chords so eventually I abandoned it to an Impulse USB keyboard. Note: the Epiphone detunes while playing as the whole neck can move slightly and steel strings are so fussy--the repair shop said it was a "Feature" and can't be repaired.
