Vintage RARE 1950's Shure 510AS controlled reluctance microphone High Z PROP 410 710A

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              You are looking at a very unique Shure Brothers 510AS model "Hercules" controlled reluctance microphone which comes with an original short cable.

  Pic # 2 is from an old Shure catalog showing this very model mic and it's basic characteristics.

 It should be noted that this microphone no longer has the original element inside the housing as it was removed at some point in time. This mic is currently non-working and should be used as a display, prop or repair piece only. You can always put another element inside if you so choose and the cable is wired correctly so a new element would make this a working unit again.

 Not the prettiest example but priced very cheap due to the condition.

 This little mic has a bit of weight to it. The original colored cloth screen has zero rips or holes or discoloration. It's appx 4 inches tall (with the lower adapter attached) X 2 1/2 inches wide. The Shure badge and logo are still present and show typical wear. Please let the detailed pics be your guide. This mic was designed to sit on it's own or to be mounted to a taller desk or floor stand. This example does not have the adapter attached to the bottom of the mic so it will have to sit on it's own without a stand.

 The mic has a short cable that's just 7 feet in length. It's still soft and pliable. Comes with the vintage Switchcraft male 1/4 inch end connector that shows typical lite wear.

 The 510AS is an easy 6 on  a scale of 1 - 10. This will make a great display piece for any mic collection.

             And as always...
