Open Box Peluso Microphone Lab 22 47 LE Limited-Edition Large-Diaphragm Condenser German Steel Tube Microphone Level 2 Nickel 197881190279

The Peluso 22 47 LE is styled after the legendary Neumann U 47. Manufactured in the 1950s and '60s, the revolutionary sensitivity of the U 47 brought extraordinary detail to recorded sound. Remembered for its use by artists from Frank Sinatra to the Beatles, it is perhaps the most well-known microphone of all time. This mic is an excellent choice for a wide range of applications, from rock drums and guitar amps to brass instruments and vocals.

The Peluso 22 47 LE is built with the highest-quality modern components and designed to perform as the U 47 did when it was new. The U 47 was designed around its TELEFUNKEN steel-covered tube, and the LE employs a true vintage German 'EF'-style steel tube manufactured between the 1940s and the 1960s. The LE brings all the subtlety of tone, detail and character of a vintage U 47, combined with the reliability and quiet noise floor required in the modern recording environment.
