Nice.

How about this one: crystal element, switchcraft connector, volume control, wooden shell. Very light, easy to cup feedback resistant and good tone.

homebuilt mic

That was half of a pair of salt and pepper shakers that came from Thailand; I believe the timber was from coconut tree.

This is mi DIY Mic.

It is made of an old shower, and it is cover whit Poxipol to close the holes that the case have. It looks cool now, like a stone or something.
The element is a cermic from theharpmicshop.com, and it souds awesome to me!

i like the orange Rx bottle. maybe i'll make one with a small dynamic element. i made a crystal mic out of a beer can once. Astatic MC-151. i gave it to an amp builder so he could voice amps for it.
