Sought-after, early production Blue Bottle tube condenser microphone system. This is unit #228—handbuilt in Latvia during Blue’s original era. Considered the most desirable version, and this one is in mint condition throughout.

It’s an early mic locker configuration and comes with a trio of prized Bottle Cap capsules:


Included Capsules:

• B0

• B6 (Rare Violet-era version)

• B7


Also included: the original rugged Blue flight case, champagne 7-pin cable, and power supply.


The mic delivers exceptional tonal range, flexibility and sounds incredible. Discontinued and increasingly rare, this is a collector’s piece and a world-class studio tool that will only continue to appreciate in value.


NOTE: I also have it cross posted locally on other platforms. Its availability can change. The listing will remain active accordingly.
