The results sound tons better than the line-out method did!
Hey thanks a ton for the info! The line-out is pretty bad, as you well know. I'll definitely pick up a cheap mic, like you recommend. For how much one costs, that sounds like its well worth it. Thanks again for the info.

But it's also because it feels so comfortable and natural for me to play. I know that's a very subjective thing, but feel is such an important part of playing guitar, and the Dot just feels great to me. Like wearing a comfortable old flannel shirt....
Awesome! I've been drooling over the Dot for a long while.. That'll more than likely be my next guitar purchase, but first I think I have my sights set on a valve junior. I think I will really like the Dot. I tend to like the gibson-style guitars much more than fenders. My agile is still like "going home" when I pick it up. Still have loads of fun with my tele tho...
