Does anyone have this mic? I just won one on e-bay. I haven't got it yet . It cost $31 +$10 to ship ($41). Is that a deal?

It's a decent mic. No standout on particular instruments or voices, no standout in noise. And I don't think it look particularly good either...

But I use it all the time on one of my regulars, so it's definitely sticking in my collection.

I wouldn't call that price a deal, though...

...the mic is still selling for $99. w/shockmount, so the price is good...

Thanks for the reply I have a BOSS BR 1600 and 5 -SM 58's ,3 SM 57's a SP B1 and 2 MXL 990's so the more condensers I can get the better. I want to get a $300 range condenser next for tracking lead vocals maybe a SP C1.I also have an old SONY ECM 22P that's rotting away in the corner with my old TEAC 3440, the sony still works but it doesn't sound like it used to back in the day. Right now sad to say my BEST mic is the SP B1.
