    Description

    Offering a
    vintage 1940's ELECTRO VOICE Model 640 Dynamic Microphone
    . (Some call this model "The Searchlight"...also kinda looks like the signal lights used on Naval Ships for Morse Code communications...see final photo.) These mics don't come up or sale very often as their production run was rather limited, and most no longer work. We have removed the dead element in this one and installed a
    new low-z dynamic element
    which exceeds the frequency response of the original factory element. Also has new internal wind cloth and wiring, plus the original yoke and side thumbnuts hold the tilt angle firmly. The
    physical condition is excellent, and the mic responds with strong clean audio
    . This mic requires a 3 pin male Amphenol plug which we can sell if you need one. The
    adjustable-height desk stand shown is included
    .
