  2. When you’re recording acoustic guitar, the quality of the guitar is one of the biggest variables. You can’t get a great recording without a great instrument. So, what do these two choices have to offer? Image © Toni Blay via Compfight

  3. The acoustic guitar has the full-bodied sound that it’s name implies. It is less well suited for playing with a full band, particularly if it doesn’t have a pickup. A semi-acoustic, or hollow body electric, has a resonant chamber like an acoustic guitar, but is intended for a completely different purpose. 

  4. Another option is an acoustic guitar with an electric pickup, which is perfect for trying to get something like the sound of an acoustic guitar in a loud musical context. An inexpensive pickup is no simple path to clean acoustic guitar recordings. Instead, you get a recording that is somewhere in between an electric or acoustic, while failing to match the sound of both of them.

  5. Recommendations You need to match your instrument to your own style and the genre you are playing. When you record it, focus on recording it well with a microphone. Unless you have a super expensive pickup, handcrafted by angels, don’t count on getting a faithful recording of an acoustic guitar. Remember, there are no rules but the best results usually come from the simplest techniques.
