Fully Tested and Working

This is a very nice original Shure 520D shell that’s been powder-coated, newly rewired, with a new Switchcraft cable connector, premium volume control knob, new element gasket, and a really great-sounding Controlled-magnetic element from 1968. The Peavey grill has been freshly chromed with a mirror finish.

The powder coat is a Harley Davidson Pearl Black. THERE IS A FLAW IN THE FINISH. LOOK AT THE PHOTOS. Not my powder-coaters best work, but still a lovely piece.

Tone-wise, this mic is strong and hot, with great distortion when tightly cupped. Better than any of the new harp mics available today.
This Shure Controlled Magnetic element has that sought-after crunchy tone.

The mic features:
– Strong 1968 Shure 99A86 AH CM element
– Integrated Volume Control
– Switchcraft 5/8” screw-on connector
– 1014 Ohms, Strong element
– Black Pearl Powder coat with gloss topcoat
– Freshly Chromed Peavey Grill

Good cosmetic condition, with one dimple in the powder. Fully tested and working.
