Got it for dirty guitars & to capture the figure of 8 pattern. Mic's & preamps are game changers in tone seeking.

I love my old $h!tty cheap azz ribbon mic! You’ve got a shiny new one! You lucky sumb......!
You have a good pre for it too! Good luck! Congratulations!
Don’t forget; they should be stored upright, to prevent “ribbon sag”.
They can sound great in a lot of applications.

Tjsmls for tip !!Used this & dynamic..very good capture.. got some good hump & some bass wave travel.. mic'd ribbon bout 6' back on an angle..it opened things up a lil..also was conscientous of the noise i made on pulling my bass strings too hard at heavy passages..ahh the things a good pre will reveal in ones playing..
That MXL is rated to take 130Db. Ribbon mic’s exhibit proximity effects....so if you bring it in close, you will notice some increase in bass response....and the mic should deal with it well.
