I record myself, and build my own gear which results in sometimes getting frustrated while trying to wear 10 hats at once.
I might just be being over critical.
I've always felt my vocals were a bit sibilant on sss and CH sounds, with little change from my point of view depending on the mic (including SM7b, U47fetish mics, etc)
Last night I was doing a little testing/jamming on acoustic guitar while singing using a new mic, and would like some opinions. This quick recording has a little EQ (cut) on it, but nothing too major. I play a bit of a Springsteen song, and then a Neil Young tune, and I think the NY song sounds better, leading me to believe there is maybe something I changed from a technique perspective...

So for the more experienced people out there, does this sound sibilant to you? Would you use more EQ? Does this seem more like a performance issue? I can reveal the mics/signal chain used, but I don't want to color the impressions...
