Try Adams in alt.guitar. Playing the harmonica is apparently the one
thing he *can* do.

It might fetch more as the original desk mic... those
don't go cheap, or shouldn't. Oops... I guess I guessed
wrong...

I like crystal for harmonica... my D-104 sounds killer for
blues harp. That, of course, is a dynamic mic.

BTW, I thought I put 'FA' in the title... sorry.

We'll see.
She auctioned the desk model back in November; got about $40 for it.
You might recall I posted a FA here with the title "Harp Mic Anyone?",
and you said:
"Err, uh.... no. Perhaps the cartridge could be put
into another mic. Or you could hacksaw off the
top, or play harmonica at your desk."

Err, uh... ok. You have too many mics, anyway.

;o)

Astatic, right? They made the crystals for a lot of other MFGs.
I've heard that (salt) crystal mics don't like heat or humidity, and
are much less forgiving WRT mechanical shock compared to CM elements,
but you likely know that.

I'm not much of a harp player (just haven't done it much), but this
mic sounds pretty damn good; especially into my late 40's Webster
Electric PA driving an equally old RCA Victor 1x12 (tweed cab for a
projector).

Hey... you took my advice! Glad it sounds good... let's
see how the auction goes.

I was planning on it anyway. The whole one was in much better shape; I
think it was the spare. The one I cut (with a Makita mini-sawzall) was
definitely the more used one.
