Selling my beloved Bock 151 (formerly known as the Soundelux E250C), the cardioid-only version of David Bock's famous 251. At one point I owned both this microphone and a brand new Bock 251 before selling the 251 because I preferred this 151 much more. This 151 had a lot more vintage character and euphonic midrange. It was purchased 2 years ago for $2500 -- the cosmetic scuffs hadn't been shown in photos, but I loved the sound of the microphone so much I have been very happy. I have to sell for financial reasons, so I am pricing very low to compensate for those cosmetic dings/blemishes shown in the photos. The mic works and sounds gorgeous. With a new tube it could sound even clearer, but I prefer the NOS tube (even though it has a higher noise floor) it currently has.In short, this is the most accurate 251-style microphone at this price. More importantly, it has instant stunning vibe and professional quality sound. A modern day classic.
Original shockmount, cable, and power supply are all included. Shipping is free. U.S. buyers only, please.
