This is a one-inch diaphragm condenser mic from Marshall that sells for a hundred bucks (really, I'm not kidding.) I told Maston in another thread that I'd make a short test of it with vocal and acoustic guitar so he could see what it sounds like. I was a bit too lazy to tune up my guitar this morning and haven't played in weeks so don't expect any fret dancing here but I think you'll be impressed with the sound overall. At least for the money it'd be really hard to beat this thing. Heck, they're even cheap enough to use live and not have to worry about dropping them on the floor. I can honestly see the trusty old Sure 57's and 58's heading the way of the bargain bin if this keeps up.
I thought it was a little better on vocal myself but it was adequate an guitar. Vocal-wise this thing would be a nice radio DJ mic. Very punchy and breathy.
You'll have to click on the link below and wait for the sound file to download in the background of the page. It's the only way I have of file sharing MP3's right now. Sorry.
