I still haven't had time to do much with that "Hot Rod-Crystal Balls" mic,
yet.  But, if I forgot to mention it in my previous post, it looks like
it uses a 5 Meg pot, which is epoxied in place (should make repairs
quite fun).  

Stay tuned for more details.

of mine to do an A/B test against several different old, original Astatics.
