Re: [Harp-L] Front and Center Mics



Rick, you have a knack for misinterpreting every post I write - you seem to find criticism where none was written and I'm tired of it.

I NEVER said these mics didn't sound good. If you take issue with something I actually say, I'm happy to address it.

Greg, if Ronnie Shellist says the Front and Center mic sounds good and resists feedback, I'll take his word for it. I've known Ronnie for years: He is a great player and a stand-up guy who would never pimp a product he does not strongly believe in and actually use.

Guy - I wouldn't choose a mic for feedback resistance as the primary criteria. There is a huge range of mics available. They don't vary THAT much in feedback resistance. What matters is whether the element in the mic gives you the tone you want. I don't know front and center, but it says they use a "NOS Vintage Crystal" without naming it - I think this is a big red flag. Some crystals, like the ones Hohner put in the Blues Blaster after they ran out of Astatic MC-151's, sound awful. Might be feedback resistant but who cares?


I find it interesting that they've basically taken all my sales points and the way I present and option my mics, and done the same thing. I'm honored.

Can anyone offer their experience with *Front and Center Mics*? They appear
to be highly feedback resistant.
