Fully Tested and Working

Here’s a lovely Astatic Biscuit harp mic, with an excellent, strong CM element. The paint is all original, and in good shape, with some minor scratches and scuffs.

This element is strong, with a quite excellent crunchy distortion throughout, and excellent bass tone.

The mic is newly rewired, and a Switchcraft 5/8” screw-on connector has been added. I’ve also installed a new silicone gasket to keep the element in place and reduce any handling noise.

The mic features:
– Strong Shure 1972 99B86 LI element
– 1025 Ohms
– New wiring
– New Switchcraft connector
– Marine-grade wire mesh with white polyester cloth

Good cosmetic condition, with minor scuffs and scratches to the original brown bullet shell paint.
