Heck, that looks like a pretty nice shell...if the mic sucks you could always put a good element in it.

Looks like the Superlux, but in red. That is pretty inexpensive. I know a guy who ran a Superlux into a 60 watt Pignose and got some killer tone out of it.

Let the microphone hating begin.

I took a modded Superluxe in trade a few years back. Guy re-painted it an awful bright green and installed a Shure CM99A86 element in it, trashed the volume control, added a single pin connector. I stuck it away with the intention of repainting it. If I recall, sounded good, comfortable to hold. I suspect the shell is the only thing good about it. Check dimensions.

I have that mic, modded by Greg Heumann with a CM element and upgraded volume pot. It is kind of big and heavy but gets a nice deep tone. I like it.

The original mic is kind of skanky...

(Actually, mine is the Peavey version of the same mic.)
