Re: Weird Wilson Mic

[Mudharp@xxxxxxx]

It looks like the same mic he had at the Minneapolis Harp Summit a few years 
ago. We asked Kim about it and he said it was a custom made unit from Europe, 
I think maybe Sweden if I recall correctly. Some of the other folks with 
better memories than mine might have more details on it. Alec Drachman maybe. The 
knob isn't for volume but alters the tonal quality of the mic.
