  • The microphone that you, didn't know you needed.
Great mic for harmonica or mid-range effect vocals, like "Dead and Bloated" from Stone Temple Pilots.

  • The Green Bullet Microphone
As a harmonica player I have used a Green Bullet microphone for over 35 years. This is my second Green Bullet as I feel it is the best microphone for harmonica amplification.

  • Hooked up to a Pignose 7-100 amp I had great sound and volume with it
As a harmonica player my go to mic nowadays is the Shaker Mad dog mic- However this mic was the first one I ever bought basically because it was an industry standard for harmonica players. Hooked up to a Pignose 7-100 amp I had great sound and volume with it. It does have some heft to it. Playing it for several hours of practicing can take its toll on the hand if you are not used to it. It is the reason I started looking for other kinds of microphones to use and came across the one I use today. Im also not to thrilled about the mic cord. I do wish it was detachable. The weight of the mic and the un-detachable cord are my two only complaints with this model ... show more
