I also like to use ribbons or figure 8 patterns to use the null points properly. As far a micing a singer playing an acoustic guitar, the EQ magazine suggestion is a good one.

I was reading in EQ last night that when using 2 mics to record a vocalist/acoustic guitarist that it is preferable to use a condensor on the guitar and a cardioid or super-cardioid for the the vocal so that the guitar does not bleed so much into the vocal mic. Also, I enjoyed the discussion about room acoustics/treatment. Here's a shot of the acoustics in my home studio at the monitoring position: http://forum.cakewalk.com/fb.ashx?m=1608832 I did this test last year after installing 9 panels I built for room treatment. I'm told it's not bad. Thanks. I enjoyed this episode very much – especially the explanation of different mic patterns and their applications.
