I believe that's an old AKG C-12 Tube mic. It has a Black Olive Drab or even Forest Green body (depending upon the specific models and years they were made) with a gold colored end.
Here's what the new ones look like:

Yeah, but the One in the picture you posted could be worth as much as $20K! And they started out around $600-$700 in the mid-60's.
On further inspection, I was wrong.
It's the model C24, not the C12.

That was my kit, btw, at Pachyderm Studio, where Nirvana recorded In Utero. It was a blast! That room that I was in is called the granite room, with rock tile all the way around (and to think Dave Grohl was rocking out in there)!

Who owned the studio at the time?
Pachyderm was owned and started by the second lead singer from the band Kansas, John Elefante (get it Elefante (Elephant), pachyderm) and his brother Dino. Now they have the largest studio in the South East called the Sound Kitchen outside of Nashville.

I believe his name is Jim Brown. I could be wrong. That was a few years ago and may have gone through his hands. Last I heard, the place was not doing well financially, and I could tell last time we recorded there.

Oops, different studio. You were referring to Pakaderm Studios in California. The Pachyderm we were at is in Cannon Falls, MN.
