Re: [Harp-L] Harp Mics - Original 520 Green Bullet

["Splash" <celtiac@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have a vintage 1960s 520 Green Bullet with a 99B86 Controlled Magnetic
cartridge.  Measures 1.09Kohms.  Repainted green flake over gold base.
Amphenol 5/8" connector installed in the mic stand mount hole.  Cable hole
plugged with wood dowel [piece of a pencil =8^D] to reduce feedback. Ground
connection inside on a drilled and tapped set-screw solder lug that also
secures the 5/8" connector for a low resistance ground connection.  It has a
small scratch in the paint, some might not notice, but I know it's there.
Grill, gasket and silk excellent!

I got 4 of these taxi cab dispatch mics that were not acceptible
cosmetically [badly scratched up and call sign stickers that would not come
off], so I blasted them, primed and painted them and then re-assembled them
with amphenol connectors removing the resistor.  I kept one for myself and
sold 2 others to good friends.  No complaints.

I have one left and will take $130 Postal Money Order plus priority postal
service shipping [with tracking- about $8]

No cord or adaptor.  You will need your own.

Sorry no pictures.  I need to get a digital camera... someday =8^D

I'm not really trying to sell it, but for Harp-L I'll let it go to a good
home.  I've been keeping it as a back-up.

PEACE
Scott
Believe in Magic!
