Microphone Placement:

Experiment with microphone placement to find the sweet spot for capturing the sound of your Spanish guitar. Placing the microphone at the 12th fret or pointing towards the soundhole can yield different tonal characteristics.
Room Acoustics:

Since you're recording in a normal room, be mindful of the room acoustics. Try to minimize background noise and consider using soft furnishings to reduce reflections that may affect the recording quality.
Recording Techniques:

Consider using a combination of close-miking and room miking techniques. A close-miked recording captures the direct sound of the guitar, while adding a bit of room ambience with a secondary microphone can create a more immersive sound.
Experiment with Mic Types:

If possible, experiment with different microphone types. While a good condenser microphone is generally recommended for acoustic instruments, dynamic microphones can also yield interesting results. You can try using both and see which one complements the character of your Spanish guitar.
Use of Effects:

Experiment with adding subtle effects to your Spanish guitar, such as reverb or delay, to create a more atmospheric or dreamy quality. However, be cautious not to overdo it, as subtlety often works well in indie music.
Performance:

Ensure a clean and expressive performance. The emotion and dynamics in your playing will greatly contribute to the overall feel of your song.
Editing in Post-Production:

After recording, you can use the capabilities of your DAW (Ableton, in your case) for further editing. Adjusting EQ, compression, and adding a touch of reverb can enhance the final sound.
