Hey guys!
I just bought the shell of an old MD421N with all its components - except the capsule.
I would like to make it a small DIY project to find a nice capsule and put it in there!
How do I get one/do you have anything to offer?
 
Hi,
I have a Peluso CEK-89 never opened, if you are interested. 50€ without shipp.
Regards,
Hugo

Are you sure that circuit is original?
I've opened and saw the insides of many MD421 mics, different versions, and never saw something similar of what you have there.

idem, switch , cable , head , even the box closing screws all look different than the various 421 or the cheaper 521 models
 
Also the MD421 bodies are 1 piece solid plastic they don't separate in the middle like the body you have, that actually is 2 parts.  Thats probably another microphone

Looks like an MD411 to me.

I was not aware of the MD411 mic, but it sure looks like it.

more pictures of the mic and grille would easily reveal that.

Not sure if it's a mic worth of loosing time with, in this case not even a mic, just a body with transformer
