    A great first-grab mic
    Nathan

    This mic greatly exceeded my expectations. I've used it with awesome success on male vocals, acoustic guitar, cello, and kick drum. It's got a vintage low end girth with plenty of clarity and precision in the top. It's especially good if you're looking to add some life to a soft piano, dark vocal, or any dull source. Overall, it's a wonderful mic with a more-than-reasonable price tag.
