This is a vintage, Astatic JT-30RH mic. Cool stock cosmetic grey hammertone finish. Internally, this mic is entirely stock, with the original Japanese crystal element. The volume control is smooth, and easy to grab with the knurled knob.

Lots of players will dismiss this element. They can be rather tinny. However, I’ve played this one for a bit, and this particular one has a very good bottom tone when cupped, and a bright, hot sparkle when open-handed. Crunchy too.

The screw-on connection is Astatic-specific, and slightly different than the more-common Switchcraft models. The Roadhouse shipped with it’s own cable to fit the connection perfectly, and that cable is included with this mic. I have reinforced the cable connections with dual wall, adhesive lined shrink tubing. This makes it very strong, and should last for years.
