Anybody recognizes this mic?

Seems like two different mics are used in it.

I thought we had a thread for this kind of stuff already?

Kinda-sorta looks like a Unidyne 546, but dark / black..? The glossy black rear end of that looks like the 57's foam windscreen, but...

Indeed looks like one of the SM57 predecessors; SM56 probably (they were black, and sold as late as 1977).

Can't tell what the second mic is - almost looks like a condenser of some sort.

Bones Howe was a big user of the 546 (and the '57).

Here's a setup sheet for Tom Waits' 'Nighthawks at the Diner' (1975):

Didn't know it existed. Haven't seen the option in any catalogue.

Yes, typical A2WS.

OK, mystery solved.

Agree. they all look the same.

Hi Abbey, maybe you can merge this with that thread we try to get started here?
