What is your opinion on these mics?

[SHEPPARDB.]

I was thinking of getting a matched pair to record some
piccalo parts with.Also wondering if they would be useful
as acordian mics?
Please tell me that these mics kick ass,because I am way
psyched to buy them!

I used some on my last album "Mountain atop water". I thought they were pretty good, although I wouldn't recommend them on acoustic. However, as wind instrument, overheads and vocal mics they are fantastic. A real bargain. A tip: They work better without preamps

first rule: never record anything you can't spell.

Would that be a "hot air" wind instument? And anything that works better without all the expensive preamps recommended here? -- Wow, I'm there!

Actually, you think thats bad? I recorded an entire album DI guitar into the MIC port with no preamp, and using this mic for vocals!!!

No wait, I remember now, I recorded an electric guitar ACOUSTICALLY from 3 feet away using this mic too. I win.
