NUDE - Rectangular Ribbon Microphone
These microphones absolutely rock for mic'ing up guitar cabs, over percussion, for horns, for sax and for vocals. The sound is full, warm without a hint of harsh bite. They excel in situations where other mics overload such as searing electric guitar solos and really heavy rock. It is truly a mic with a beautiful and distinctive tone. It comes presented in a blond-wood plush display box. It has a distinctive rectangular shape reminiscent of the original RCA broadcast mics. The sound is luscious and warm. The mic is built like a tank and feels heavy in the hand and includes a sturdy suspension mount.
