Vintage 1977 Shure 99B86 QA Controlled Magnetic Microphone Element

Ok, this isn't the prettiest element I've seen, but is has excellent tone, with tasty high-end breakup. It's got that crunchy Slim Harpo sound, which I really like. The face of the element still has glue from the original owner. I don't like to remove the glue, because the solvents can also remove the bobbin adhesive. And the glue doesn't effect the sound, so I leave it alone.

Manufactured: January 1977
1085 ohms

I've personally tested this element in a Shure Green Bullet shell and played it through a Kalamazoo Model Two, and custom Mission Chicago Harp Amp.
