Where is the 'LIKE' button?

Just wondering if (other than looks) they are really something unique?

Who cares? They look like they sound awesome!!! lol!

Couldn't they have named it something...anything...else?

My great aunt Myrtle was truly disgusting.

looks like it came from the 1920's.

so apparently trumpet ear labs has mics named: Edwina, Chantelle, Myrtle, Louise, and Edna. Someone was looking through family photos when thinking of names for their mics?

Just having the Myrtle set up for vocals in any studio will draw the ooooo's and the aaaaaa's out of any artist.
It's now at the top of my next microphone purchase list.

 

[moresound]

Am on an iPod right now.
Can someone post a picture of the Myrtle and possibly their other selections?

Hmmm I like the old-school vibe about it, but I'm still not a huge fan. Looks like a bubble blower

You should check out the new Cascade Knucklehead ribbon mic....available with an antique copper finish option, and 3 trannies to pick from.
Looks wise, it's kinda' similar to the Myrtle....but it's a "Knucklehead" (a manly mic name)....and not a "Myrtle".

You know it, Tomm!

Uhh, yeah, but wondering about the metal spring suspension - would think it transmits vibrations/sound pretty easily.

As I look at some of those mics, the first thing that came to mind was a gadget my wife has in the kitchen drawer...

Arc, Haha i was thinking the same thing.
