I do not care for the Shaker mics. Over the years my mic collection had
gravitated toward the Shure CM element in different mic bodies.
For a good lower-cost mic, you should consider the Bottle O' Blues mic from
Harp-L'er Jim McBride. This mic has plenty of low end, sounds good when you
get things cranked up to a respectable level, and is very light and easy to
grip. It also has very low handling noise and is quite
feedback-resistant, important considerations in a harp mic. This mic always
goes in my gear bag.
Search on eBay for "harp mic" to find the Bottle O' Blues. It sells for
less than fifty bucks.
