Description
We stock the Ear Trumpet Nadine mic, which is a stellar mic for upright bass amplification and recording. But Ear Trumpet makes a whole flock of high-end, stylish, hand-made microphones. They've got a massive list of celebrity endorsers of these fantastic mics, and so I thought maybe we should also make them available for purchase here at Gollihur Music.
If you're shopping for the Nadine Upright Bass Mic, we DO stock that mic and can ship out ASAP. You can find out a lot more about that microphone here, and order it for timely processing and fulfillment.
I don't STOCK these other Ear Trumpet mics, but can generally get the various models from Ear Trumpet pretty quickly. Meaning, if you need it super fast for a gig or session this weekend, I probably can't make that happen - but I should usually be able to get you your new mic in 7-14 days or so, depending on where you are (and whether Ear Trumpet has one ready-to-ship to me). We'll do our best to be timely, but don't expect any expedited handling (I guess what I'm saying is that you can still pay extra for expedited shipping, which will shorten the time it takes to get from me to you once we ship it - but it can't ship right away, as we have to acquire the mic first).
In the model listing below, I've included the most relevant facts, specs and details - but if you need more information, photos, etc. - please drop us a line and ask. I can send far more detailed information on a mic you might be interested in.

Her smooth, detailed sound excels at all kinds of stage duties, from vocals to acoustic instruments to drum overheads, and also shines in the studio as a warm, accurate recording mic. She is optimized as a single-source mic, but with a sweet spot from one out to 18 inches, she does great capturing voice and instrument together for solo or even two performers. Often used on stage and in studio for vocals, close-miking acoustic instruments (guitar, mandolin, banjo, fiddle), drum overheads, electric guitar cabinets. Also available in a closely-matched stereo pair.

She has a pleasing high end with no harshness, and a sound that performers, audiences, and engineers all describe as astonishingly natural. Ideal for single-miking a small acoustic ensemble, including acoustic instruments and multiple vocalists, on stage or in studio.

Ideal for live vocal performance use, or single-micing small acoustic ensembles. Myrtle has the most classic vintage styling of any of our mics, with a design pedigree straight from the 1930s. Her sound, however, is a wonder of modern acoustic design that thrives in current stage environments. She takes the warm, detailed sound and astonishing feedback rejection of Edwina, and adds a low end tuned for accurately capturing acoustic instruments from any distance. Her sweet spot extends from 6 inches out. And she has the low noise and natural clarity to work wonderfully in the studio as well. Ideal for single-miking soloists or small acoustic ensembles, including acoustic instruments and multiple vocalists, on stage or in studio.

Mabel |
|
A hand-built, top-of-the-line multi-pattern studio condenser microphone, designed primarily for studio use on demanding sources like acoustic instruments, drum overheads, and vocals. Mabel features a unique copper-ringed head basket with brass grill work, held in a pivoting mount in a stainless-steel yoke, and a copper-and-brass body. The design is both visually stunning and extremely practical, as the pivoting head makes for easy positioning adjustments. She uses two fixed-cardioid electret medium-large diaphragm (26mm) condenser capsules, individually tested and selected to match each other and strict design criteria. The circuit is a transformerless FET with fully balanced output, incorporating thorough EMI protection. Other electrical components in the signal path are highest quality metal film resistors, polypropylene and polystyrene capacitors, and individually tested, hand-matched and biased transistors and JFETs. The dual-cardioid-capsule design is an uncommon approach to a multi-pattern mic. It has advantages in an especially deep null at the sides of the figure 8 pattern and greater control over the directional frequency response across all the patterns. The circuit includes high frequency EQ tuned to the capsules to provide a very smooth high end. The response is very flat, with full low end and controlled high end, with response dropping above 14K. Perfect for use in studio for vocals, acoustic instruments, overheads. Multiple patterns provide different tonal options.

She has a smooth high end with no harshness and a very gentle upper-midrange emphasis. She also incorporates a full foam pop filter for great plosive protection. With exceptional feedback rejection, she can be used on even the loudest of stages. Her warm, present tone is also great on acoustic instruments. Recommended for close micing vocals and acoustic instruments in demanding live settings, and in the studio.

Also included is a FREE 20ft. Microphone Cable so you can hook it all up!
Please note: If you have never used a microphone with your bass before, please realize that there are limitations to microphone use - that's why transducers were developed! There can be greater feedback potential, and using a mic will usually require greater care to position your bass, mic, and speakers -- and adjust EQ -- to avoid feedback, "squeal," or unwanted resonances. We include a helpful sheet with tips for avoiding feedback with every mic and pickup order.
