Ear Trumpet Labs Myrtle -- Mint
I purchased this microphone to use for live performances of the acoustic duo I was in. I used it once at a small party at our studio. That was the last performance, and the mic has been stored in its case since then. It’s in mint condition. The case has a small scuff from being stored. This mic sounds great live and it looks fantastic. I am not performing and I haven’t used it in several years, so I am letting it go.
From Ear Trumpet:
Large-diaphragm condenser microphone with spring-suspended retro styling. Ideal for live vocal performance use, or single-micing small acoustic ensembles.
Myrtle has the most classic vintage styling of any of our mics, with a design pedigree straight from the 1930s. Her sound, however, is a wonder of modern acoustic design that thrives in current stage environments. She takes the warm, detailed sound and astonishing feedback rejection of Edwina, and adds a low end tuned for accurately capturing acoustic instruments from any distance. Her sweet spot extends from 6 inches out. And she has the low noise and natural clarity to work wonderfully in the studio as well.
