Restoring Rare Vintage Ribbon Microphones

This video shows the restoration process behind a rare Shaftesbury RT Ribbon Microphone (made in England in the 1960's) and National WM-706 Ribbon Microphone (made in Japan in the 1960's). It's likely that I won't have another Shaftesbury ribbon on my bench ever again, and the National ribbon has a unique motor that makes for a bright sounding ribbon.
I sell microphones like these every week on my website! Check out colepicksvintage.com to purchase and learn more.

This week we'll be comparing the Electro Voice RE15 with the Beyerdynamic M88! Different microphone companies made microphones with high and low proximity effect for different uses. The RE15 has very little proximity effect, and the M88 has a ton of proximity effect. I know people that prefer both on drums, so hopefully this video helps determine which you like for yourself. After checking out ...
