I use my mxl-V63M for everything when recording. It is a condenser mic, so I wouldn't use it in a live situation. I got it for $50 on sale.

Here is a song that was written and recorded in one hour based on a challenge (so there was no time to properly EQ and all that stuff): http://fawm.org/songs/61265/

Recorded: Vocal/guitar together on one track and then a track each for guitar, me beating on the guitar like a conga, guitar lead, extra vocal and shaker. (maybe listen under headphones would be a good choice).

Here's a dropbox location if you have trouble with the FAWM link: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/101504714/10_i-must-be-a-ghost.mp3
