Need recording microphone reccomendation

I like to play guitar a lot, and sometimes I wanted to record them. I need a microphone to do that, and I'm not talking about those $5,000 microphone, I just need a decent one, that sound better than a phone or cheap ass $30 microphone. I'm no studio guy, so please help.

My brother got me this setup as a gag gift because I've been looking for an expensive microphone for months and couldn't decide on one but I hooked it up to play with and it actually sounds amazing. I was going to pick up a Audio Technica AT2020 since they're on sale for $100 but this mic legit sounds too good for me to upgrade. There are some minor issues I have with it, but they're mostly related to how it mounts on my desk and not in regards to the mic quality at all.

Check out the Audio Technica AT2020 USB+. I have the older AT2020 USB and absolutely love it. Great sound quality from it.
