Joe Meek JM27 small condenser

[dmbfan1981]

anyone familiar with this mic? I notice it has no pad or roll-off. Is it worth buying? I am in need of an instrument condenser for acoustic guitar. I have a pad on my FW410 so I can live without that and use a plug in roll off if I need it that much.

Did you use the search.

I have a matched set and I use them 90% of the time for drum O/H.
It was the best $100 I spent.

thanks. I think I am going to pass on it then. If anyone is interested, there is one going for around 40 bucks with shipping on ebay. closing in a couple hours.

Bad ass mics for the money. I use them over my MXL SDC's every time.

I love them...

In the recent track I posted (Christmas service track) I used a JM-27 on the large Djembe....really nice sound.

I also use them as drum overheads with nice results.
