Re: Amplifying oval hole mandolin w DPA?
I used a DPA 4099 on the Gibson F4 Hybrid I own and it was ok. I ended up not using it because the venue I played in had regular gusty winds and the mic couldn't deal with them, foam cover and all. In the studio it was nice if very sensitive. Every little touch was picked up. Some folks will like this feature.
These days I get along with inside mounted appliances.
