If shopping for your first high end harp mic this is the one I most recommend. I manage to extract all sorts of evil goodness from the hand picked CM elements used in these exceptional microphones. Seasoned pro's are typically more than pleased with the tone and strong output.
Includes your choice of my standard Turner or Shure housings, typical examples shown. These vintage shells are painstakingly hand finished to a gorgeous appearance, each will have it's own unique character. Many other shell types available at various price points.

The incredible Twin Tone mic... upgraded to a highly coveted black label CR element. (availability varies) These elements were produced only in the late 1940's/early 1950's, unmolested examples are becoming quite scarce. The good news is that they were exceptionally well made, an all original correctly functioning example is likely to provide many years of trouble free service. Some CR's definitely sound better than others, only the best make the cut for a Twin Tone! Along with the Shure R7 crystal, the CR is widely regarded as THE Holy Grail of harp mic elements.

The high international shipping cost for this world class microphone is due to the default setting for insured Priority Mail with tracking, I'm not profiting from it. I can mail it for much less upon your written request, but the risk of loss or damage would then be 100% on you.

The ONLY screw fitting cable to have if performance, shielding, looks and durability are important to you!
I try to keep at least one 20' Canare cable ready to ship in each color, but demand sometimes exceeds production capacity, contact before buying if your order is time sensitive. Often a short delay for other lengths or for Mogami wire.
Due to hand fabrication cable length can vary +/- 2". (0-1 inch is typical)

I try to keep at least one 20' cable ready to ship in each color, but demand sometimes exceeds production capacity, contact before buying if your order is time sensitive.

If I'm on the road I might not be able to mail anything until I return, but often carry a small inventory with me.
I can also make these with Orange, Green, White, Yellow, Brown or Gray Canare wire, or in any color Mogami wire. Right angle connectors are also available. (additional cost and delay for these custom orders)

Hand built in the US by my friend Greg Heumann. I liked the quality of these so much that I became a distributor... win/win, saves me the bench time of producing something similar.
I've tried all the others, none in my opinion (aside from the discontinued Switchcraft 329) are nearly as well engineered as these. Full one year warranty from the manufacturer.
Ships via uninsured USPS First Class at your risk (never any issues in over a decade). Please contact before buying if you desire insured shipping at additional expense.

I have a dwindling stash of these. Typical brush chrome example is shown, some have different knurling on the ring, some have smooth chrome (different production runs). All are in excellent cosmetic condition and work just like they did when they were made around 50(?) years ago. More info in my free Harp Mic Buyers Guide.
