Telefunken C12 2025 - Gray

TELEFUNKEN C12 Tube Condenser Microphone – Excellent Condition – Purchased New

For sale is my TELEFUNKEN Elektroakustik C12 Tube Condenser Microphone, purchased brand new approximately a year and a half ago.

This microphone has been very lightly used exclusively in my private professional recording studio and has always been handled with great care. It is in excellent condition and has never been used for live performances or taken on the road.

The TELEFUNKEN C12 is an exceptional high-end tube condenser microphone, designed to capture the character, openness, detail, and beautiful top end associated with the legendary original C12.

It delivers a large, three-dimensional sound with a smooth and detailed high frequency response, while maintaining warmth and body through the midrange and low end. It is especially impressive on vocals, acoustic instruments, piano, strings, drum overheads, and room applications.

Excellent for:

• Lead and background vocals
• Acoustic guitar
• Grand piano
• Strings and orchestral instruments
• Drum overheads and room microphones
• Percussion
• Brass and woodwinds
• Guitar amplifiers and many other studio applications

One of the things I particularly appreciate about this microphone is its ability to capture detail and air without sounding overly harsh or aggressive. It can produce a polished, expensive sound directly at the recording stage and is an outstanding microphone for any professional studio or serious recording setup.

The microphone has been stored carefully in my studio when not in use and has been treated as a high-end piece of recording equipment should be.

Condition: mint ( just like new )
Purchased: Brand new approximately 1½ years ago
Use: Light studio use only
Environment: Private professional recording studio
Road/Live Use: None

This is a great opportunity to own one of TELEFUNKEN’s flagship tube microphones without paying the full new price.

Selling only because I am reorganizing and reducing some of the microphone collection in my studio.

Serious inquiries and buyers only, please.
