I played Seydel 1847 harmonica in C through Ultimate Shure 545 microphone with vintage element. The transformer is from an old PE54 microphone. The mic is Hi-Z with screw-on connector. It has a strong, dark, rich and dirty sound with a nice break-up and lot of blues mojo. Exactly what Harmonica Hawk needs!

The microphone was bought at Greg Heumann’s superb harmonica site www.BlowsMeAway.com.

Movie:



The Ultimate 545 mic was connected into vacuum tube preamplifier BEHRINGER Tube Ultragain MIC200 connected into DIGITECH Vocal 300 multieffects pedal connected into BOSS BR-1200CD digital recording equipment. Bass & drums tracks were created in BOSS BR-1200CD. Reverb and a little distortion was used (no delay). No guitar amp was used.
