All user reviews of 4/5 for the B-band A1N-1470

I brought up the microphone on a rather low-end guitar because I needed to do concerts, but it did not matter too much since the microphone can change the guitar at home.
I installed in November 2004. I did some concerts, but the wood has moved ... (Jim Harley power!). I go up on my next acoustic guitar, that I will take good quality!

Otherwise, the microphone is nickel. Of course, attention can make the clear sound of feedback, with the sound box, once we played a bit much.

What I like about this microphone is that it has a good output level and low blows. The sound is very precise, but return he really the sound of the guitar? It gives a color a little heavy for my taste for records, but it's great for concerts.

For cons, I do not know if it's the fault of my guitar, but I noticed a deficiency in the bass, you can catch up by mixing the sound from a microphone (SM57 for my part) added in rosette. For cons, I did not put panel preamp because it had to do an awful lot more hole in the guitar ...

This deficiency was found with the Korg PXR4.

I paid the pose, microphone, and a strap all for 190 euros. That's a lot a lot, I enjoyed myself, so I have no hesitation about the price. Besides, I should have done it myself, in the end.
Otherwise, if I had asked myself by taking it from Thomann, I would say value for money was very good.

I have no experience in electro-acoustic guitars. I know something bad to wood, not great in microphones.
I've played on Ovation, but I have not had much time to appreciate the quality of microphones and guitars.

In any case, this microphone seems to me much better than my electric guitar! So I find it very good. A fault: it is that the attachment strap will crack one of these days :-(

For the record, there is the perennial problem of breath. This microphone is not blowing much, it is mainly the PXR4 preamps, I think.

- Install a luthier acoustic guitar on an old form of "Dreadnought" about 4 years ago. Been using in concert.
- The most: the sound of the guitar is respect and I would even embellished. No feedback. In a ddi amp or direct into a PA system (via DI box or not) the sound is impeccable. No rglage, in my case the balance is perfect. Cons: no EQ, no volume knob (- 1 point). We can get away with a pedal insrant eq. To change the stack houses the indoor must dtendre strings (less than 1 point) but ... I change the battery once in four years, should not complain too much.
- I tried several mics including Dean Markley, Bill Lawrence, etc. ... see anything. The B-band surpasses them. The resulting sound is nothing to see (or hear plutt) either with an electro-acoustic. Here it is the acoustic sound of the guitar amplifier.
- The price is justified given me its got (150 + 50 for installation. Of memory. A good handyman can install itself.
- I would do it if I choose Rasht an acoustic but with a system that latest issue.
