My Beta 56

[Obi-Wan zenabI]

I bought this eight years ago without researching it, thinking it had something like the 57 capsule in it. It's a supercardioid dynamic that's designed for snare and toms.

I won't be doing any live drum micing any time soon, so was wondering if there were any good uses for it that I should play around with before selling it on. Anyone had good luck in the studio with these?

Have used it on Guitar (guitar plugged in through Pod, 56 on the guitar itself) and Accordian (2 56s) with good results.
