Hello I need some advice.
I'm getting a custom lattice (Smallman style) flamenco guitar built and I'm looking for a pick-up solution with the following characteristics. I realize some of them are contradictory! I'm actually less sensitive to tone because in any serious stage situation I'll use a microphone. I need the pickup more for jamming. I would like however to be able to record the pickup sound along with a mike in order to apply processing to the pickup sound and mix it back into the live sound. The characteristics I need are.
1) Low feedback
2) Picks up guitar body tapping. I play percussion on the guitar beyond the usual Flamenco tapping
3) Good separation between the strings. Perhaps even with 6 different channels that can be output together.
I'd appreciate any advice.
Thanks,
David
