Im starting my studio on a budget and a friend suggested an AKG perception 200 for recording vocals and acoustic guitar. I also see AKG has come out with a new mic the AKG perception 220 anyone know if its any good or how it compares to the 200?

If you have any comments about these mics or perhaps a suggestion for another that would also be around $100-$200 bucks that would be a good choice for acoustic guitar and vocals i'd really appreciate it.

Thanks in advance,

I'm using a 200 for little over a year now and I'm quite happy with it. Recordings are clear and crisp and the bass cut filter is very useful. Be sure to get a pop filter though, because you'll need one! From what I know the differences between the 200 and 220 are minor. Whichever your choice will be, you'll get a good mic for a very reasonable price, imho.

Audio-Technica AT3035 is a very good mic in that price range.
