Default Re: Mic acoustic guitar ( live )

Talk to the harmonica player. If he plans to hold it in his hands, a 58 might be better, since the round top gives him something to hold on to.

The Green Bullet is a classic Harmonica mic, but it is usually meant to be plugged into an amp for a very specific distorted chicago blues style thing. If he's looking for a more organic or acoustic sound, stick to the 58. i fact, if he doesn't already own a green bullet and an amp for it, I think that;s a pretty good indication that you're looking at a 58.

Also, the inclusion of the word "jazz" makes me even more 'sure' that you don't want a green bullet. The addition of trombone suggests it to me too.

If the guitarist is waring the harmonica on a neck stand, then the mic will go on a mic stand, and a 57 is fine too.

I don't know the e914 - sorry!
