Bill - Open mic? I'm not sure, I have thought about it. There are a few here where I live each week, I may need to go down and listen in a few times and see what it's all about.
Kevin - The Breedlove I've had for about 4 years now. It's not a high end guitar, just their Atlas series, solid cedar top, but laminate mahogany back and sides. I'm pretty happy with it overall, esp. for the price. This was recorded directly through the under-saddle pickup that I had installed. It's so so, little bit of buzzing and a tinny/harsh sound as compared to mic'ing it up. I had to juice it up a bit in post
Jason - The backup vocals and main vocals, I used Garage Band's built in effects, this one was "Live Performance" with the reverb turned down a bit. I just "punched in" the backing tracks on a separate track.
