Every day I get questions about my recording setup at YouTube. I have answered this so many times, I think I need a new keyboard.
I have 2 good microphones (AKG C 480 B) that I place besides the Camera about 2 meters (6 feet) away from the guitar. I attach them to the camcorder (Canon HF 10) via a mixer. In the video editing software, I add some reverb. That is it really... I have a very good guitar of course! And have worked very hard all my life to have a good sound from my fingernails. In mylatest videos from around October 2010, I don't add reverb anymore since I play in rooms with good accoustics.
I hope this information will help you to get started!
Good luck!

In September 2010, my latest CD "DISTANT LOVE" was released.
I recorded it in my home in Sweden, had it mastered by Michael Lazarus in Los Angeles, California and Marie made the design and layout. It was printed in the USA and is currently shipping all over the world from Miami.
THANK YOU! to all my listeners for all the kind comments on the CD!
I was invited to play at the memorial for Tøger Seidenfaden who sadly passed away last week.
Tøger Seidenfaden (28 April 1957 – 27 January 2011) was a Danish journalist and political scientist, and, from 1993 until his death, editor-in-chief of the broadsheet newspaper Politiken. His father, Erik Seidenfaden, was also a journalist. He was editor-in-chief of Weekendavisen between 1987 and 1992 and managing director of TV 2 from 1992–93. He was a long-time Bilderberg-attendee, and member of the Trilateral Commission's Executive Committee.
It was a great honor to pay my tribut to a great man with my music.
(Tanslation of the Danish text in the article: At the bottom of the staircase leading down to the Press room, Per-Olov Kindgren is playing his guitar.
It is his own compositions we hear, the guitarist tells us.Tøger Seidenfaden loved to listen to my music while being treated for his cancer. Per-Olov KIndgren has been teaching his youngest son for several years now.
"- He is very talented! He will go far if he keep playing, Per-Olov says."
Today those compositions are the first thing that meets the several hundereds that come to the candel-lit room in Politikens House to say a last Goodbye to Tøger Seidenfaden.
Jasper van Berkel invited me again to come and play a concert in Saint Restitut in south of France, together with his teacher Damien Aribert and him. Thanks Jasper. This year Jasper will take care of the marketing of the concert and maybe make a surprise appearance..
We will have a great time this year too, I am sure.
You can see a Slideshow from my visit there in 2010: 1, 2... 3 guitars at Saint Restitut on July 24th 2010
In October 2011, I am invited to come and play in Germany. There will be 2 concerts in Blomberg on the 8th October 2011 and in Holzminden - some 35km south east from Blomberg the 9th October 2011.
