Vintage 1960's Astatic DNHZ dynamic microphone High Z harp mic HAM radio w accessories

Hello and welcome to The House of Chrome. You are looking at a mint condition Astatic DN-HZ from the 1960's with it's aluminum resin applied Astatic badge and comes complete with it's original F-11 adapter and very hard to find original box. This was a good quality "general purpose" Dynamic microphone and was an affordable alternative to some of the more sophisticated dynamic cardioid mics of that era. It just happens to make an excellent harp mic as well with it's dirtier High Z tone. A great choice for a HAM radio set up as well. Pic # 2 is from an old catalog I have showing the mics basic price and characteristics. After 50 + years of use this DN-HZ still has a great, strong signal and set at high impedance which means it basically lacks bass in it's tone. It's omni-directional as well. These mics have a classic "rockabilly" sound that many musicians and harmonica players are looking for today. This DN-HZ model had that classic deco look that was very popular in the 1930's to 1950's before the design lost appeal and was eventually phased out. Far more classy than flashy and looks quite elegant when you appreciate the lines on it. They certainly don't build these mics like they used too. This unit has been thoroughly tested and cleaned. As you can see it has gorgeous original paint as well and this is personally the nicest example I have ever seen. It almost belongs in a museum. The black screen is free of any holes or rips. The chrome is gorgeous too. Joint mechanism works nicely and allows for a smooth sliding adjustment. The Astatic badge looks excellent and completely legible. The Astatic F-11 adapter is in great shape as well and is needed to operate the mic. Comes with standard male 1/4 inch end connector for use with most modern audio equipment. The cable is a long 16 feet in length giving you plenty of reach to work with. The cable is soft, pliable and free of any cracks. The Astatic F-11 adapter with cable will allow you to screw this mic onto any American microphone stand. Last but not least is the Astatic mic box that the mic came in. It's the only example I have ever seen and it's in pretty good shape too. A nice, rare accessory to have for display and resale purposes. MICROPHONE STAND SHOWN IS NOT INCLUDED...USED FOR DISPLAY PURPOSES ONLY. I do have several desk stands in my Ebay store if one is needed. This mic is 100% original and 100% complete.
