do you have the right mic cable? A $1000 mic pre with a $20 cable could be a terrible mistake.

I agree that you should use a good quality cable but some of the audio-fool stuff out there is way over the top. Just have some cables made from Mogami, Canare or even Belden and terminate with Neutrik. You will be fine. You can get the stuff and make'um yourself or have these guys do it for you.

Better gear up guys, it's so tough to record a high gain electric guitar, you need an esoteric preamp to capture that compressed, square wave signal.
