Guitar microphones come in a variety of setups. They are intended to be used with equipment made for microphones. The concept is very simple. A microphone is meant for a PA system and not for a guitar amplifier.

The units will work to a degree in a guitar amplifier and then we hear the full potential of the instrument. Almost all the manufacturers provide the facilities for the acoustic guitar player to capture the most natural sound in a live or recording setting.

AMT is one of the pioneers in the manufacture of various equipment for musical instruments. AMT also pioneers in manufacturing some of the best guitar microphones. AMT has engineered different models in order to fit into the needs or playing applications that acoustic guitarists might require.

Both S15G and S3G are available in the popular BP or belt pack version and are also available in the Studio setup as well. The S15G is a low-profile condenser microphone that has a cardioid pattern which gives it an advantage over most guitar microphones in the market.

The element as well as the mounting clamp is designed for the instrument. It is rugged construction of anodized aviation aluminum which makes it highly durable, while keeping it lightweight and non-corrosive. The microphone is attached to the side of the instrument, and is suspended in a 4 point isolation ring reducing handling noise.

The S3G is a unique, low profile condenser microphone that can only be used with an acoustic guitar that has a sound-hole under the strings. This microphone incorporates an omni pattern to capture the sound from inside the guitar. It is suitable for use in quieter applications. The AMT S3G features a flexible gooseneck, allowing the player to position the microphone for the best possible tone reproduction.

Famous Drummer - Steve Smith

!±8± Famous Drummer - Steve Smith

Steve Smith is widely known for being the drummer of American rock band Journey. He is an all-around drummer, collaborating with hundreds of artists to date. With his powerful drumming and command of jazz, he has captured the attention of audiences of different ages.

Born on August 21, 1954 in Whitman, Massachusetts, Smith found interest in drums upon hearing marching bands during parades in his hometown as a child. He received his first drum kit at two years old. In 1963, at an early age of nine, he started studying the drums with a local teacher, Bill Flanagan, who had his share of playing in big bands in the swing era. He had his first real drum set at twelve. As a teenager, Smith performed in the school band program and garage bands. His first paid gig was with a garage band. He later played in a professional Brockton concert band and in the big band at the local college, Bridgewater State College. Smith went on to study music at the Berklee College of Music in Boston, where learned under renowned teachers, Gary Chaffee and Alan Dawson.

In 1974, Smith joined the Lin Biviano Big Band, with whom he toured and recorded for two years. He also toured with jazz violinist Jean Luc Ponty in 1976, as well as with Ronnie Montrose in 1977. It was during his tour with Montrose that Smith was asked to join the rock band Journey, replacing Aynsley Dunbar. He joined singer Steve Perry, lead guitarist Neal Schon, keyboardist Gregg Rolie, and bassist Ross Valory in the band. Smith played drums, toured and recorded with the band from 1978 to 1985, during the period which is considered most successful for the band. The group then decided to take some time off in 1985. Smith focused on jazz, and pursued his career as a session player. He has played on numerous hits with various artists, including, Mariah Carey, Savage Garden, Bryan Adams, Andrea Bocelli, Corrado Rustici, and Ray Price. He also played with a number of high-profile jazz artists, such as Mike Mainieris group Steps Ahead, Tom Coster, Ahmad Jamal, Dave Liebman, Anthony Jackson, Mike Stern, George Brooks Summit, Scott Henderson, Buddy Rich Big Band, and many more.

In 1983, while still a member of Journey, Smith formed his own jazz/fusion group, Steve Smith and Vital Information. He is also the bandleader of Steve Smiths Jazz Legacy, featuring Andy Fusco on alto sax, Walt Weiskof on tenor and soprano saxes, Mark Soskin on piano, and Baron Browne on bass. The group pays tribute to great jazz drummers.

In 1995, the band re-united and recorded a comeback album, Trial by Fire, released the following year. The recording included the chart-topper When You Love a Woman, a single that gave Journey a Grammy nomination. The band planned a subsequent tour following the success of their album; however, Steve Perry sustained a hip injury, so the band decided to look for a new vocalist. It was during this time that Smith also decided to leave the band.

Steve Smiths explosive solos gained him much acclaim. He was named in 2001 as one of the Top 25 Drummers of All Time in Modern Drummer Magazine after being voted as #1 All-Around Drummer for five consecutive years. In 2002, he was voted into the Modern Drummer Hall of Fame. The following year, his Hudson Music DVD Steve Smith Drumset Technique - History of the U.S Beat was voted #1 Educational DVD of 2003. Smiths calendar is filled with drum clinics, which showcases his exceptional drumming techniques and concepts to students all over the world.

Smith plays Sonor drums, Zildjian cymbals, Vic Firth Signature Sticks and Tala Wands, Sonor Hardware, Roland Electronics, Shure Microphones, DW Bass Drum Pedals, Puresound Snare Wires, and Remo Drumheads.
