Royer R-101 ribbon mic, excellent condition with original carrying case, shock mount and mic sock. Fantastic mic. I love my R-121 with a 57 but if I had only one mic, I preferred the R-101. Built for durability on the road but just a fantastic studio mic IMO. Only used in a smoke free home studio.

Description

Here's a ribbon mic that's built to take on practically any sound source in the room! Royer's amazing R-101 works well on everything from drums to acoustic guitars to loud amplifiers. You'll love the smooth "you are there" sound you get from the R-101. You'll also appreciate the peace of mind you get knowing that this ribbon mic is robust enough to handle all these sources, thanks to its high SPL handling (in excess of 135dB). A built-in multilayer windscreen helps protect the mic's ribbon element from plosives and wind damage. Put the remarkably affordable R-101 on an amp cab, a trumpet, a drum kit, or a piano, and you'll be a believer!
