I was wondering if anyone can recomend which brand of resistor for the G7 mic. Xicon, Vishay? I heard Jim Williams likes bulk metal foil resistors for audio. Would these be good in the mic or overkill? I should probably just buy some and stick them in huh!

agreed.
after you get the mic up and running you can experiment if you like.
i didnt forget about the g7 grounding but this is a crazy weekend. doing some renovations around the house. i'll try to get to it some time this weekend. there is a threadthat lays out the grounding scheme somewhere in the mic meta. i'll see if i can come up with it. i looked for it last night without sucess.
 
Maybe try standard carbon film to start.
  Then when the circuit is working well try and if you want to try a different resistor type try it at the plate resistor spot this is a spot that if there is difference you might hear it.
