This mic will not let you down, it's rugged, tough, durable and good to look at., it's heavy, and works every time.
I like that it doesn't have an on off switch, less things to fail.
I play music from the 40s and 50s, (well I try) and this just adds to the whole overall feel.
When I spend money on something I never want to worry about having to buy another, I always buy quality, it saves money in the long run, and if you ever need to sell again, quality always sell.
