RCA BK-5A w/ Genuine New Old Stock RCA ribbon
Lovingly restored to like new / museum quality- beautiful!
Includes 1 yr Warranty / NEW RCA Ribbon by Stephen Sank
It is rare to see a BK-5 in such beautiful condition, as these were truly workhorse microphones that can really take a beating! But this one has been beautifully restored to like new condition externally and internally, with a fresh genuine RCA ribbon properly tuned by the RCA ribbon master Stephen Sank.
Newly ribboned and ready to ship! This mic can be in your hands overnight in most cases, and within a week outside the USA.
A properly serviced BK-5 is perhaps the best sounding microphone in history for guitar amps. It also shines on acoustic guitar, snare, percussion, and vocals. It also has better output than most ribbon mics, although lower than a condenser, making it a great choice for fingerpicked acoustic guitar and other quiet sound sources. However, BK-5's also have a great internal blast filer making it safe for high SPL's including bass amps, bass drum and other sources that ribbon mics usually cannot handle. It is a very tough and durable mic that will deliver amazing tone on any application.
It also comes with the complete and restored original mounting claw that is sometimes hard to find and worth over $400 by itself. These mics have been selling at times for over $1600, without a fresh ribbon and warranty! This one comes with a fresh new ribbon and a 'worry free' 1 year parts and labor warranty and 14 day return policy for money back or store credit (minus shipping).
Has original yoke mount, terminates to XLR and is ready to use!
This mic sounds amazing for:
*Drum overhead or room mic
*Bass Drum and Bass Amps are safe due to the blast filter
*Snare and toms sound killer
*Sweet Smooth Vocals
*Warm and mellow acoustic guitar
*Unbelievable guitar amp tones, clean and crunch!
*Smooth horns
*Strings
*percussion & shakers, ect.
*The only choice for mandolin, banjo, steel or anything that you want that warm rich tone that only a quality ribbon can deliver.
This is a great vocal mic. It is pretty awesome as a room mic for recording a rehearsal or ensemble, or to just sweeten up your drum mix.
Ribbon microphones are WARM!! The richness of these mics are the solution for recording in the digital age. You will be blown away by the magical warm sound of sound of this and other ribbon mics that we have available. Not even the best tube condenser can come close to the warm beauty of a well tuned ribbon microphone. Ribbons are the warmest and smoothest sound available. Cold and harsh sounding digital recordings can be a thing of the past!
Welcome to the wonderful world of ribbons.
If you don't use ribbons currently your life and your music is about to be greatly improved, if you are ready to take the next step into the warm sound of ribbon microphones. Visit the website and the the new myspace page to hear sound clips of some of the microphones in action.
