Jonathan Stout - "Exactly Like You" - AEA R84A Active Ribbon Mic - 1932 Gibson L-5

I recently got the opportunity to test out both the AEA R84 ribbon mic, and it's active counterpart, the R84A. We've used vintage RCA ribbon mics as well as AEA's vintage-style ribbon mics for almost all of our studio recordings, but I never though it would make sense to own one and to use it for home recording. But after visiting my buddy Tim Ferguson (on instagram as "@thefoxtooth") I realized something like AEA's R84 could be an option after all, even in my house, which has no acoustic treatment to speak of. I was blown away with how great the R84 and R84A sounded on my guitars without any EQ (save for a HPF to shelve 100hz). Moreover, I was blown away at how I was able to control the amount of ambience, even with a figure 8 mic on a single source in an untreated room. So, here's the second of a couple video demos I made testing the R84 and R84A. I hope you dig them. Full disclosure, AEA lent me the mics to see if they'd work for me, and I did end up buying an R84A myself.
