You asked :
Does the V67g just totally blow the 2001 out of the water or what??
The 2001 is a very bright, brittle-sounding mic IMHO, and I doubt if many people will be happy with it in the long run. The V67 (in green or any other color) is a pretty decent mic, as MXL mics go. My hunch is that you'll get more mileage out of it than you would the 2001.
Someone here or at Harmony Central said they thought Marshall was packaging the 2001 with a 603 (a very decent SDC) just to get rid of their inventory of 2001s...
