Your reviewing the mic---just use the mic ALONE at least a little. C'mon

@SONGSTICKS Yes, any mic will pick up bleed from other instruments, voice, etc. But it's not usually a problem, anymore than having a mic on a stand in front of the guitar. James Taylor has been using one of these, for example, and it doesn't seem to cause a problem with him singing.

Can you use t his to get isolation on the guitar (that is, only get the guitar and not the vocal when recording both) in a studio setting?
-
Excellent demo and sounds very nice.. but I think $599 is a tad steep !!
You could buy a Rare earth pickup for much much less and would sound every bit as good, if not better. I also noticed at one point when you brought the mic in, it picked up your talking voice. I would imagine when singing and in a crowded place you'd get lots of overspill and possibly feedback problems. Great for home recording though.
I'd buy one but not at THAT price !!

Awesome video Great Review thanks!
Just about everything I need to hear/know.

It would have much more useful to hear the mic on its own first then blended with the pick up - this video isn't much use for hearing what this mic is like
-
@MidouBanChan No, its designed like a tiny shotgun mic. It's specifically to cut out things like ambient or background noise and instruments near to your own.
-
if i'm singing while playing, will the microphone pick up on the vocals?

@mariopainthero11 There are several different companies that manufacture soundhole mics. Check out K&K trinity.

The pickup in Doug's guitar is a Seymour Duncan MagMic.
