The standard tube for this mic is the Flea EF12 or E80F. The standard capsule for this mic is the F7. This is what we stock.

Special orders can be placed for a  Telefunken EF12 tube or a Valvo EF12 tube. These would add on 350 Euros.

The standard capsule for this mic is the F7. A special order version with an F47 capsule can be ordered.

This mic is an exact replica of the U47. It is equipped with F7 capsule and Ef12 tube – Flea's exact replica of M7 capsule, replica of BV8 transformer and TELEFUNKEN EF14, UF14 or VF14 tubes.

In fact, they are the same tubes with different heating. Especially we focus on the EF12 tube as we consider its sound character to be closest to the original. Of course, the price depends on the type of tube. Those of you who have knowledge of prices

know that the price of a good VF14 tube can reach 1,500€, so it is obvious that this mic is not a cheap thing. But this mic is possible to use for almost everything and always sounds perfect. Of course, there are a few exceptions, but only a fool would position this mic 5 cm from the kick-drumhead of a heavy metal drummer.

The body is duraluminium and is nickel plated .

The grille is available in two versions: glossy chrome or matt nickel.  WE STOCK THE STANDARD CHROME. The whole set comprises the mic in wooden box, cable, shockmount and power supply. You can choose from two PSUs, modern one or the copy of the vintage style PSU (see the gallery).

The other option of this microphone is: FLEA Magnum – fitted with F47/49 capsule. This mic holds opened top end and more sensitivity. You can achieve great results if you use Magnum for ambient miking.

INCLUDED IS SHOCK MOUNT, Cable, and wood box.
