    Description

    Offering a
    vintage 1960's OLSON M105 Microphone
    . These Japanese mics (released under a multitude of names) were targeted towards the consumer with an attractive bullet style design, but employed a very poor quality crystal pickup. Over the years, heat and moisture took their toll on most of those pickups, so we have upgraded that dead element with a
    new high-quality SM58 replacement capsule
    , which
    greatly improves the fidelity and output
    of this microphone. The original green aluminum casing has been
    tastefully repainted
    with a Hammertone Silver enamel and clear coated to guard against scratching. This thing now looks as good as new with its nice chromed grill, clean original grill cloth, and new 20 foot long cable with male 1/4" phono plug. The
    adjustable-height desk stand is included
    , overall height from 12-16".
