When you get a vintage boutique mic, is not just about what you are getting. It's also about being sure the thing is working like it should. You are looking exactly at that. this mic has just been serviced by a top pro technician in LA, who made sure capsule, tube, and power supply are working ok. The PSU has a completely custom wound new transformer on it and has it's voltages adjusted to provide the exact voltages as if the mic was brand new bought in the 60's. In short, it's is working like its supposed to do and should give trouble free operation for a long time.
Other than the expected tears, markings and signs of age in body (U87 style), PSU and cables, the microphone is guaranteed to be delivered working as the Neumann original specifications require. This is why no other 67 seller can sell the mic with the confidence I do and make this listing very special. Feel free to contact me regarding any questions. New info: Vintage shockmount included (with new Neumann elastic bands-not the pictured ones)
