This Lafayette PA-44 is a rare, vintage crystal public address microphone originally manufactured in Japan during the 1950s and 1960s. Sold by Lafayette Radio Electronics, it features a distinctive retro mid-century look.

Sound Profile: Musicians and reviewers note that the PA-44 provides a highly "hot" output signal packed with rich harmonic content, perfect bass response, and strong mid-range tones.

Harmonica Favorite: Because of its high-impedance crystal element and gritty, warm tone, it is highly sought after by blues harmonica (harp) players looking for an authentic, distorted "bullet mic" sound when run through a tube amplifier.

Amazing Condition!
