I have uploaded a few pictures to show off Greg's work on the mic he built for me.
It is cocobolo with a stealth volume, piano finish, turner grill and a metal grill screen. I supplied a donor mic for the build (440SL with a 99B86 element)

Just curious, when the grain matchhes, is the volume high, low or in the middle? ---------- "Come on Brackett let's get changed"

The volume is at the highest setting when the grain matches up.
It was a last minute add on, although I will use the volume more as the on/ff switch than for the volume control, but it is good to have to tame any unwanted feedback.

The knob is in fact held on by a set screw so you could set it to line up wherever you want. But I set them up so it lines up when the volume is at full. ---------- /Greg
