a month on my Ibanez ...

good killing this microphone! the sound is fat and round on the low strings and hairline and always warm on the high strings!

I really like the result for rock, blues and even metal! Meanwhile fat is added to my ibanez rather dry and cold and the result is really very nice ... <img class="smiley" src="https://fr.audiofanzine.com/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="biggrin" />
