Where to get replacement Gefell M7's 3rd party that fit?

Like the title. I need 3 or 4 new M7's Gefell style. Or advise on how to replace them in old and new M71's?

Write Gefell. In the past they have been glad to sell replacement capsules for their own vintage microphones. You will need to supply them with serial numbers.

Only gefell capsules will fit because of the strange way the capsule is connected to the circuit (little golden "blade" for the center tap).

You could also use a Thiersch STW7.1

But you will have to ask at mikrofonunion.com for it!
They would also reskin your old ones…

Thanks Guy's I didn't think there was an easy way as some of the parts are broken and missing in a couple of the older ones.

Well Paul you could see if it's possible to make a standard m7 mount fit in the headbasket but there is not a lot of room. Alternately you could easily fit a K47 capsule in there with it's smaller mount
