Vintage Telephone Microphone w/ Volume Knob & 1/4" Mono Output (Circuit Bent, Lo-Fi)

Made from a rare blue-colored Handset, this handmade circuit bent Telephone works as a functioning microphone with unique sonic characteristics. The microphone has been modified to include a volume knob which helps shape the lo-fi sound of the microphone and make it more useful for live performance or studio work. The microphone is in the earpiece and the volume knob is on the bottom along with the 1/4" Output Jack (TS). You can watch the demo video to hear it in action- the sweep of the pot is very usable and you can turn it for swell effects and better control in experimental situations or during live shows! It has a great lo-fi and vintage sound that emphasizes the mid-range. It's a great studio tool for adding layers to vocals, special FX, and getting unique sounds that inspire you and the vocalist in the booth. This mic was modified with the same spec parts. Output is 1/4" Mono Jack compatible with instrument cables (TS). High quality output jack and potentiometer were used. This mic is in excellent condition- it has a rare light blue handset and pure white Boss-style knob! Check out the pictures to see it up close! Telephone has been cleaned inside and out with isopropyl alcohol and will be sanitized again before shipping. This vintage analog telephone was used in past decades but is still in excellent condition- there are very few scratches/dings on the handset and there is a bit of sun-bleach discoloration near the output jack. It is a one-of-a-kind handmade piece of gear and the sound is unaffected by the finish- the pictured phone is the phone you will receive. More can be made upon request 1/4" Cable can be Built into the Handset upon request No Returns on Circuit Bent Items. Some Circuit Bent items can be repaired/refurbished but repair cost may apply. Do not use with 48v Phantom Power- it will damage the microphone! Pacific Plaza Circuits, Southern California
