Offering a vintage 1940's Western Electric 633A Dynamic Microphone. This is the famous “salt shaker” mic first produced by Western Electric, and later acquired by Altec. A rugged low-impedance dynamic mic, was popular with radio stations for many years, the military, and is now enjoying new popularity with harp musicians for it's rugged, hand-easy fit and unique audio profile. This mic has been tested and produces a strong clear output from its original element, (A voice sample can be had upon request.) A short 3' cable is wired to the mic with male Cannon (XLR) plug. The casing has recently been repainted, with very mild signs of use. (We can swap the XLR plug for a 1/4" male phono plug if you prefer.) ** Always safe secure packaging and fast fair shipping. Also, save with combined shipping on multiple purchases. **
