Hey, sorry to resurrect this, but I need to get something straight about the grill mod.
In two places I found people removing the OUTER two grill layers

This specific mic had the INNER two layers removed, right?
(similar to this one jordancolburn.com/2009/07/16/mxl-990-modifications/)
I got the first inner layer off on the front and then was worried about that other person's post about loosing grounding...
So, it is the inner two layers, right? This would leave only the heavy duty outer layer...
n00b here, so forgive me.
