Really nice components on the mic circuitry, witha decent tube. really good build quality on everything, although the Mike cable and connectors are substandard. The Mike preamp, good build quality, extremely poor parts. So bad the JAKEC capacitors will have to be replaced, they are known for inconsistency and rapid failure. The transformer most likely to be replaced too. Not a bad deal for the overall for the price. considering anything close is around $3000.00. I would recommend only if parts are replaced.
