New Chinese U47 Style Body

That’s cool. Let them know there will be more wanting to do the same. Still, more than anything, I wonder of payment. Can we use PayPal or are they really insistent with bank transfers? It’s used so little around here that my bank stopped offering the service a number of years back and I understand why.

I got more info. Visual info!

Seller sent me two pics of the actual mic body
I've joined those two pics into one so that it can be attached here

But still no info on shock mounts...

(p.s. this looks nice to me!)

Wow, looks pretty darn nice to me, too! I prefer the nickel/matte headbasket to the chrome one.

My homebrew version!

The body looks really great, at least in pictures, I don't know if having it in front of you will look as good, but for the price looks awesome.

Congratulations Spencer, that's really nice, looks better than an industrial one.
I love the "mean" look it has from being an DIY unit.

Great work there

With the matte grey body, I definitely like the chrome top for some contrast. If going all one color, I much prefer matte black.

I'll let y'all know how it goes.

Now do we (two months later!) 'already' know what we get if we order?

Looks nice.
It seems that source is much more clear in showing what they are selling

Wonder if it's this one, found on aliexpress: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005001874660413.html

They're the guys with the "Our Brand/Famous Brand" comparison (look at images)

Is it just me, the link does not work here?

No -  doesn't work here either...

I get "Service unavailable".

Thanks for confirmation!
I also get only a "Service unavailable"

I got that link from the mobile app and it seems to work on only some browsers. I replaced it with the websites link. Should work now.

Different company name, but same pictures and price. Probably the same.

Thanks a lot for your effort!
What's a bit funny is the supposed "German" rating, it sounds like Yoda wrote that after a lot of alcohol.
It was an automatic translation on their website.
