    Description

    Offering this
    1960's CALRAD "Pill" Microphone with RCA-type styling accents
    . We're upgraded sound...the old dead salt
    crystal pickups have been removed and a
    new wide-range fidelity SM58 replacement replacement element has been installed. It's now
    fully functional with
    much
    improved fidelity/hot output
    . The over-all
    condition is excellent.
    The upper chromed perforated cage is flawless and thoroughly cleaned. Thumbscrews hold the tilt angle firmly. The mic is hardwired to a short 2 foot cable terminating with a 1/4" male phono plug.
    These mics mimic the styling the larger
    RCA 77, and and we've added that custom RCA band to enhance that iconic look.
    This sale also
    includes
    the Atlas DS-2 desk stand
    with reproduced metal RCA badge
    . (Overall height 11").
