AKG C12/CK12/N12, a legend produced 2500 times between 1953 and 1963. It's the ultimate tool. If you're lucky enough to find one it'll be expensive! On the same level as Neumann U47 or ELAM 251.
OVERALL OPINION
It's quality and rarity! You'll easily find some U47, M7 or K47. Unlike the U47 (VF14), you'll have no problem finding a matching tube for the C12 like a Telefunken ECC801S or an original GE6072.
