Fully Tested and Working
If you’ve never tried an Astatic Biscuit microphone for harp, you’ll find them smaller, lighter, and easier to cup than most any other mic out there. I really like this shape. This particular mic has fat tone, raspy even. Good lows and great distortion when cupped. It howls!
A beautiful Astatic Biscuit in great cosmetic condition. It’s newly rewired, with a Switchcraft cable connector, and a great-sounding 1956 Shure 99H86 Shite Label Controlled Reluctance element. It’s a beautiful finish. Take note, however, that the original tin tag on the top of the grill was missing. The chrome hast two dimples there.
The mic features:
– Vintage 1956 Shure Controlled Reluctance Element
– New Black Pearl powder coat
– Switchcraft 5/8” screw-on connector
– All new wiring
– Newly re-chromed grill (notice to rivet holes on top)
– Black grill cloth
The mic has been tested on a Mission Chicago 30 watt amp, and on a lovely little Kalamazoo Model Two amp. It performs great on both.
