Ronette G210-7

diameter 56mm / weight 267g

From the Dutch manufacturer Ronette, the G210-7. At a certain point in history somebody decided to shoot a hole through the shell of this Ronette....and the bullet went straight through. I repaired the holes, but you can still see the wounds. The mic is 100% airtight.

 

This microphone dates from around the 1940's - 50's. The crystal element I replaced for a custom dynamic element from a Leson TW-205AC combined with a German impedance transformer. It now has app. 1400 Ohms impedance.

 

It is very hot and has a warm round tone.
