You think you could tell us what your setup is? It sounds sweet.

My set-up goes: Martin D-15->Audio Technica MB4000C(mic)->Behringer UB802(mixer)->Zoom MRS-4(digi 4 track rec).
It's a pretty ghetto set-up but it's portable which has actually come in handy. The recorder doesn't have xlr hookups so I had to get the cheap little Behringer mixer. It also records to smart-media and then I have to transfer the file through a card reader. It does sound pretty good though.
Then I add bit of reverb, e.q., and compression in Peak or Cubase. It was recorded in mono and there's a neat function in peak that lets you turn mono to stereo and it made it sound a lot better.
I got a cable for my second mic finally so I'm messing around with stereo recording. It should kick it up a notch.

This wasn't a shameless plug btw...I swear I missed the question.

You're too generous Pat but I thank you.

The key is D and Em but the inversions helped to make it sound more diffuse.
I'm trying to go back and record some other ideas but it takes time. Anyway thanks for the comments.
