Copious thanks again to @kingkorg for the simple mod that makes this a very useful mic; smooth and rich. https://groupdiy.com/threads/akg-c3000b-5-min-mod-awesome-mic.67911/

Great thread!
Repaired, cleaned, reskinned a lot of capsules but unfortunately haven't take photos of all of them...
It's sometimes more time consuming to document than to do the work.
However, here a k67 style in Brauner Phantom Anniversary before and after reskin (for curiosity traced the circuit..)
