Review: Classical Guitar Microphone for a Christmas Concert - All's well with this condenser microphone. It has past the test for a good sound and sensitivity. I've used it on an audience for the first time on Christmas day and allowed another musician to use it also, so I was able to stand back and listen. I'm well pleased. It's a welcome addition to my limited but high quality sound system. (Classical Guitarist)

### ⭐ Not working
*by C***E on 6 April 2023*

I unfortunately ordered this mic back in September but never opened the box till a few days ago. To my surprise, the mic isn’t working. It’s dead. I lost my window of opportunity to rerun it now but wanted to share my experience so that everyone knows that the chance to receive a defective product is there
