That's awesome. You really went to town with that! Did you end up changing the capsule at all?Ok,
I just savagely desacrated the poor thing during the first COVID cockdown.
Kids DON’T try this (put a EF86 in the mic) at home, pins are NOT compatible with ECC83/12AX7.
I had to hack, cut traces/rewire alot.
But the mic sounds superb on ac. guitar and on vocals. I wish I had two.
First two pics are before/during mod.
Last four, are after the ugly deed.

I noticed you removed c6 and c7, I've been reading about this and some people leave it in on purpose, so what's up with that? Dave Thomas says to remove it, but it seems some people don't, so I'm definitely curious about the benefits of doing so.
