Best value: Excellent
Used for about 1 year.

I tried everything, all prices .... and frankly the most expensive is not always the best by the way ....

I bought this mic mainly because I'm a fan of Nirvana, Kurt and his .... had this mic on his guitar .... this is the original idea ....

What struck me the most "stuck" is that for a microphone "high gain", it is not strident or shrill, but rather "growler" ...... yes, that's the word that best qualify: grogneur.C is probably due to the fact that it has bass and midrange forward, and treble a little behind.

Somehow, it made me think a P90 ..... in much more muscular course!

I'm not at all agree with the so-called fact that it is not for clean sounds, I find instead that it comes out more than well in the register .... Note that we can splitter and it is very convincing.
It is true that the output level sometimes seems excessive, but it is controlled very well to volume knob (tone or if it is just to remove some teeth to the sound).

For me it is very versatile micro ultimately ..... well on the distortion or overdrive are his favorite terrain, but you can spend a large OD that spot just a little crunch with the volume knob it is not pretty!

Harmonics out all alone ..... perfect I tell you!

The value for money is excellent in my opinion, I would do without hesitation that choice!
I hope that Dimarzio will manufacture for many years to come!

Ultimately, it can transform any scratches that even very average, a super skyscraper with its true .... then on a quality guitar, imagine ....

If you are fans of good old rock, hard, punk, grunge, metal, Metallica style, or whatnot, this mic is for you!
