alistermorton Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 At 86 inches long I doubt if you would find a use for one of these in your mic store: http://www.coutant.org/ev643/ That's a fascinating site. I'm sure I recognise at least one mic I had in my youth on there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryNattrass Posted April 9, 2013 Author Share Posted April 9, 2013 I was given an AKG C12 when it was due to go in the skip at Tyne Tees TV, I sold it for £1800 15 years later and wish I had saved all the coles ribbon mics that also went in the bin. http://www.coutant.org/akgc12/index.html I did also get some old calrec mics but they too went on e-bay!
