So much is said about blues players , their syles of playing, the 
amps and set ups that give you that perfect sound that your looking 
for. But what about the great clean players ,the accoustic sound like 
Levy, Mike Turk, Toots, Charlie McCoy,Doug Tate just to name a very 
few. What is their mic of choice. do they play through an amp or 
through the pa system. What type of particulars do they require when 
they set up. This is what I'd like to hear about. Jerl

I can say that Toots uses a Shure SM-58, which he cups in his hands, 
and goes through the board.

Doug Tate, who may pop up to speak for himself, used to try to 
completely ignore microphones - he has enough sound to play 
acoustically with an orchestra - but what with playing in hoetl 
convention rooms the last few years, he's started to acknowledge the 
presence of microphones somewhere in his general vicinity.
