Hello and welcome to The House of Chrome.
You are looking at a very interesting and somewhat rare Turner "Balladier" 466 model dynamic microphone from the 1960's. This solid and modern looking mic with satin chrome finish makes this one of the least recognized and most interesting Turner microphones ever produced. This seldom seen mic will make a nice addition to any mic collection and will be fun to use for many situations. It comes with the cable shown.
This 466 microphone carries the High Z Dynamic element which has a "rockabilly" sound that many musicians are looking for these days. Great for a HAM radio set up and other basic communications.
Pic # 2 is from an old catalog showing the mics basic specs and price.
This 466 has a strong, clear signal that basically void of bass.
The on / off switch slides smooth and works perfectly. The Turner label shows wear but completely legible.
The black plastic tip shows several small scuffs and scratches. It contains a nice metal screen that is free of any dents but there is lite tarnish. The satin chrome body has quite a few scratches and slight signs of corrosion but overall the finish is pretty nice which I would give a conservative 6 + on a scale of 1 - 10.
Mic also comes with a beautiful 7 foot Belden 8401 model cable that is free of damage. Soft and pliable and has a chunky 1/4 inch connector is included and will work with most modern audio equipment and all guitar amplifiers.
The threading for the cable and mic stand are perfect. No issues. Solid inside and out this mic was built to last.
The mic will screw onto any desk or floor stand you have as well.
MICROPHONE STAND SHOWN IS NOT PART OF THIS SALE...USED FOR DISPLAY PURPOSES ONLY.
