I have one. I haven't used it in a long time. The element on mine is dead, and I haven't gotten off my ass yet to send it in to Shakey to have it fixed. I liked mine okay...it was a little on the bright side as a lot of crystals tend to be. But I liked the compact design of it. Mine's one of the original run that had the 5/8" Amphenol connector with the 1/4" female adapter, which I like better than the current model with the 1/4" jack. I think the thing I like best about the mic is that since it's so compact, you can create a much bigger chamber with your cupped hands and get a good ballsy fat tone with it.
