Hello and welcome to the House of Chrome.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                               You are looking at a vintage 1989 Electro Voice model DS-35 dynamic cardioid microphone that comes with an original E.V 312 model mic clip, data sheet, mic pouch, cable, exterior foam pop filter and original E.V mic case. This rugged classic microphone was made by E.V in the U.S.A for almost 30 years before being discontinued and was a high quality model used for several applications.

 Pic # 2 shows this very mic in an older E.V catalog along with a few other models of that time.

Pic # 3 is the actual data sheet you'll be getting showing the mics basic specs and technical characteristics.

 Tons of info that will come in handy getting to know everything about his classic mic. The data sheet is in very good overall condition and completely legible. I have been told by several singers who have used both the RE-16 and DS-35 that they actually prefer the sound of the DS-35 better. The DS-35 has a flatter response than the RE-16. This is a great mic for toms & drums as well.

 The E.V DS-35 is a light weight microphone set at 150 OHMS (Medium to Low impedance) and it has a smooth, warm tone that's excellent for broadcasting and singing. This was basically an RE-16 model mic without the bass adjustment lever and again, flatter response.

 It's also uni-directional picking up only your voice directly in front of the screen and cancelling out unwanted background noise. 

 I don't know the first year this was introduced but it seems to have started production in the late 1970's to the early 2000's before being discontinued. 

 It should be noted that I replaced the upper and lower inner foam liners. These inner foam screens greatly help with the acoustics of the mic as well as keeping the lower screen steady.   The new foam is in great shape and will last for several decades to come. The foam / pop filter cuts down any unwanted feedback due to wind or breathing. The foam needs to be replaced on all of these older DS-35 mics so keep that in mind if you buy another example from another buyer.

 There is another exterior foam pop filter to use if you need it? Fits nicely and has zero odors or damage. Just one more layer to cut down on unwanted "pop" while live.

 The mic measures 7 1/2 inches long and 1 3/4 wide at the screen. Very light and versatile. The only real wear on this mic is on the handle as there is lite scuff marks and tiny scratches. Very subtle and won't even be noticed from more than a couple feet away. No fractures, dents or missing paint. 

I'd give the mic a solid 8 physically on a scale of 1 - 10. The real beauty is that sound it produces. The mic takes a standard XLR cable which is included.  The cable is in excellent condition. Soft, pliable and 15 feet in length. It has the quality Neutrik female XLR connector for the mic and a male XLR end connector for your audio equipment.

The Electro Voice 312 model mic clip is also included and it grips the mic nicely allowing for a wide range of tilt up and down with zero damage or wear. The clip will screw on to any microphone desk or floor stand. The clip has the adjustable tension via side screw. There is an original E.V vinyl mic pouch that's in perfect condition and a great place to store the mic to avoid any unwanted physical damage.  The E.V mic box is included as well and in very good overall physical condition. It's quite large and has room for the mic and all of it's accessories including the cable. There is a new foam pad to keep the mic safe and snug. Just typical lite physical wear on the outside of the box but an excellent accessory to have.  If you demand an excellent working DS-35 to use frequently...this is your mic.
