Peluso 22 47 SE Standard Edition Tube large-diaphragm condenser microphone – in excellent condition, serial #: A01252 fully functional, and complete with its original accessories including the dedicated power supply, wooden microphone box, shock mount, 8-pin screw-on cable assembly, and locking padded flight case. This microphone has been carefully used in a private, smoke-free studio and has always been stored in its protective case.

The Peluso 22 47 SE is Peluso Microphone Lab's modern interpretation of the legendary Neumann U 47, one of the most celebrated microphones in recording history. Designed to recreate the warmth, depth, and musical character of the original while incorporating modern reliability, the 22 47 SE is hand-built in the USA using premium components and individually tested to ensure exceptional consistency and performance.

Inspired by the microphone that helped shape countless classic recordings by legendary artists such as Frank Sinatra and The Beatles, the Peluso 22 47 SE delivers the same vintage-inspired sonic character while utilizing a modern 5693/6SJ7 American steel vacuum tube, custom-wound output transformer, and a 34mm center-terminated capsule. Together, these components produce a rich low end, detailed midrange, balanced highs, and the smooth harmonic saturation that engineers associate with the classic U47 sound.

The Peluso 22 47 SE is highly regarded for its:

• Vintage U47-inspired sound, delivering the warmth, depth, and presence that made the original microphone legendary.
• Large 34mm center-terminated condenser capsule, providing exceptional detail, natural transient response, and a full frequency range.
• 5693/6SJ7 American steel vacuum tube, producing classic tube warmth with an exceptionally low noise floor.
• Custom-wound output transformer, offering smooth lows, richmids, and open, balanced highs.
• Nine selectable polar patterns, allowing the microphone to adapt to virtually any recording environment from omnidirectional to figure-8.
• Hand-built American craftsmanship, using carefully selected components and rigorous quality control.
• Professional studio versatility, making it equally at home on lead vocals, acoustic guitar, piano, brass, drum overheads, room microphones, and voice-over applications.

The 22 47 SE has earned praise from some of the industry's most respected producers and engineers. Jack Douglas—the producer behind albums by Aerosmith, John Lennon, and Cheap Trick—said his Peluso 22 47 SE microphones were "absolutely true to the originals" and that they "were a big part of this new Aerosmith album" he produced.

Award-winning producer Markus Dravs, known for his work with Coldplay, Arcade Fire, Florence + The Machine, Björk, and Mumford & Sons, praised the microphone for delivering "clean, warm presence both on vocals and instruments" while preserving "body and depth."

Producer Johnny K (Disturbed, Staind, 3 Doors Down, Plain White T's) has also described the 22 47 SE as his favorite vocal microphone, noting that it consistently outperformed even his Neumann M149 during microphone shootouts.
