1950'S
"ELVIS" STYLE
VINTAGE
MICROPHONE
MIC
OAK TREE VINTAGE'S
"555VMOT"
for sale
I have an extensive background in sound reinforcement
having designed, installed and controlled many church, club, band,
school / university audio sound systems. Systems ranging from 4000-5000
seat halls to coffee shops and with groups varying from solo to
multi-piece acts. I put a sound system in the Air Force Academy chapel
(yes the famous one you see on the post cards from Colorado). I've done
work for most of the schools and military installations here in the
Colorado Springs area over the years. I am not trying to simply "blow my
own horn", but to give you my background before I tell you about the
sonics of this mic. I know sound and I know microphones extensively. Ok,
after 10 years of looking, we have finally found a "vintage" looking mic
that isn't just for "prop use", yet is under $500.00. Not only does this
one work, but it works incredibly well. Most "vintage" mics are just
that, "old mics". Most are great looking, but were designed in an era
when sound systems and stage performances were much less demanding then
they were even 30-40 years ago. Most of the classic designs were from
the 30-'s-early 60's. Stage / monitor levels were no where near the
volumes they reach now, and speaker response range was much narrower.
Sub bass was unheard of, literally, and top end was generally limited to
the 10-12kHz region. Also microphones typically had either a
corrugated ribbon element, a Mylar diaphragm element, or were a Piezo
crystal element. Ribbons stretch after a couple decades and loose their
top end, so mics with this type of element must have new ribbons
installed to get back their former sonic glory. Most crystals have long
since dried up and pretty much sounded like a telephone even when they
were new (that's why harp players want them as they have that
"Mississippi mud" sound through an old tube guitar amp. If they can find
one that still works that is). That leaves the Mylar diaphragm mics.
Many of the classic Shure mics designed around the famous 55 series had
Mylar elements (the larger body versions usually had aluminum diaphragms
which while they don't particularly change over time, they have a very
limited frequency response in the first place). Mylar is a type of
plastic and as you can imagine age has not been kind to most mics with
these type elements (which describes most mics out there). I have tested
30 to 40, 55 series mic's over the years and sonically they are not
consistent. Most of them (when they do work at all) are very "thin"
sounding with not much low end. I will still deal in them, as some folks
still want an original either for appearance, to round out a collection
or to install a different element in.
Having said all that, here is what I'm really here to talk about. This
new mic is one of the best sounding, dynamic, uni-directional, live
performance mics I have auditioned. When they came in, the first thing I
did was grab one of my personal SM-58's, this mic and a couple new XLR
cables and headed to my main demo mixing console. Immediately I noticed
over the other classic 50's style mic we have had from India is much
better craftsman ship on this one. The lines are evenly cut, the
castings are all clean, the pivot joint isn't just a "bolt from the
hardware store", it has a nice satin clear-coat finish and it has an XLR
(big plus as you don't need one of my special cables). I put this mic
into a channel and the Shure SM-58 in a channel next to it. After doing
a quick "check" for signal level on the two, I tested for level. This
555VM was about 6dB+ hotter than the 58 (likely due to the
-71dB sensitivity). Sounding almost as if I was demo'ing a
Shure Beta or an EV N/D series. I also noticed the top end was
considerably extended over the 58, even with just my voice. I then
checked for handling noise (a very difficult thing for mic manufacturers
to keep a lid on. Accomplished by completely suspending element in
rubber mounts. See right photo above) and it was
very acceptable. I then check for "off axis" rejection. Again, more than
acceptable (also a difficult thing to control). Next I checked for bass
proximity, expecting there to be a prevalence of boominess. VERY
acceptable. At this point I was a little too impressed, so I thought I
would check for other variables. The first thing I did was to rule out a
difference in channels on the mixing console. This was simply done by
reversing the mic connections. Still the same. Next, I thought I must
have grabbed a less than typical performing SM-58, so I went to my
personal mic case and picked two more 58's and two SM-57's (my personal
preference over a 58 as I like the extra top-end crispness for vocals,
although most folks simply "default" to using a 58). The 58's and 57's
all performed consistently, as they should (especially since they're my
personal mics) and this new 50's style mic still blew them all away ( I
still will keep my 20 or so 57's and 58's). Here are the specs:
Applications: Vocal
/ Speech
Type: Dynamic Moving
Coil
Frequency Response:
50-16,000 Hz (a 58 tops out at 15k and the element in the new 55SH tops
at 14kHz)
Polar Pattern:
Uni-Directional / Cardioid
Impedance: ~370 Ohms +/-
20% (low Z)
Sensitivity: -71dB +/-
3dB
Pop Filter Material:
Black, Acoustic foam
Body construction:
Chrome plated die casting with a clear satin, poly finish
Connection: Standard
3-pin, XLR
Stand Flange: Standard
US threads with European adaptor included as well
Case: Foam lined, poly
case
I was simply looking for a
better looking "prop" mic when I found this model. Most of the folks
looking for a classically designed mic simply want them for movie, TV,
Stage props or display / award props. Very few people want to actually
use them as functioning microphones. These go beyond our wildest
expectations as not only are they great looking microphones, but
exceptional performers!!! I apologize for making this text so wordy, but
not many things that come down the pike impress me anymore. This Mic
does and I am adding 3 to my personal audio "tool box".
Mic measures 7.5" overall height. Uses

OTSJ-25 mic cable shown

"UNI-VAL"
Bi-Val
RIBBON MICROPHONE
Circa Late 1930's-1940's
for sale
Probably the most sought after of the vintage
"Deco-Era" mic's. The Webster / Rauland W1248, "Uni-Val" Ribbon microphone.
We have had 3 of these in the last 12 years. Like 2 of the last 3 we had,
this one will need internal work to function again. Gut's intact, but as
typical would need a new ribbon and re-wiring. This one also has a
replacement, non-original wire cover / spring on the back. The connector is
currently unwired with the wires only stuck in for appearance / prop /
display purposes. Stand mounting
threads in good shape. 2-Pin, Bakelite connector still intact. Connector
threads are in good shape as well. While the yoke thumb screws do hold
steady, they are slightly different one from the other. One is original, and
one is a replacement. We did install new
rubber washers under the thumbscrews. The mic has had some repairs to the
bakelite bottom and top cap at some time in the past (see photos, but had to
see). The repairs are very smooth. Chrome yoke and fins
all intact with no break. All Chrome clean and shiny. Great looking "prop" / display mic
or potential restoration. You could also install a more modern dynamic
element such as one from a Shure SM-58 or similar if you choose. Late 30's through
50's time period.

ORIGINAL AND OPTIONAL
#418 STAND IN GOLD
for sale
This is a vintage EV 664 that was gold anodized at
the factory. This was an option available at the time. This one also has
the very rare stand that was also gold anodized to match. "Single vent" version. One of the
few "Vintage" mics that still sounds good
and remains usable on modern sound systems. Plenty of "low-end" with
good balance. Has new "pop filter" foam installed above element. ON/Off
switch cleaned. Fully tested.
Original Specs:
Mic / Element type; Dynamic
Polar
Pattern; Cardioid
Element Material: Mylar
Freq Response: 60-13,000 Hz
Impedance: Dual. Switch-able (easily changed by moving on wire on the
MC-4, internal connector) Lo @ 150 ohms or Hi or Hi 250 ohms
Output: -55 dBm
Recommended use (originally):
Handheld / Stage Vocal, Amateur Radio / Communications.
Connector Type:
Amphenol 91-MC4M
(4-Pin)
Mic has been tested and works great. We also installed new windscreen /
pop foam. The gold finish has considerable wear. One area in particular
is about the size of a couple postage stamps. It also has some shallow
"pitting" wear to the stand and typical scuffs and scratches to the mic
body. Internal connector in good shape and works find. We also cleaned
the On / Off switch and it functions perfectly. Typical of a 664, it
feels like a "hammer".
Looks good with only most minor cosmetic wear, sounds & works great!
Uses our 4-pin screw-on cable available above
(sold separately). (pictured stand not included)

MICROPHONE
Circa 1950's
for sale
Classic and very sought after Calrad 500C, RCA 77 copy
mic. This is the slightly later version with the enameled badges. These were
"Crystal, Dual Element" mics. Most have long ago dried up and do not
work. Oddly this one does still function. These are great for photos, display, prop or loading in a modern
element and using on-stage. Chrome grill work in perfect
condition with no dents or corrosion. Bakelite body perfect with no chips or
cracks. None of the common cracks around the yoke mounts either. Also the
stand mounting flange is still firmly spot welded to the yoke. They
are commonly missing or glued in place which will usually not hold!!!
Polished Aluminum body and grill work.
Original Specs (when working):
Impedance: Hi-Z
Element Type: Double Crystals
Frequency Response: 40-8,000 cps
Pattern: Omni-directional when placed Vertically,
Cardioid when placed Horizontally
Output: -50db
Mike looks great! They were designed with dual "Crystal" elements, which sounded like a
telephone when when they worked. This one, interestingly, still works! We
don't get crystal mics that still function very often. It could also be possible to load with a
more modern element or a lavaliere mic. They're not very useable on modern sound systems
due to that. They were originally sold as Tape
Recorder mics. If anyone tries to convince you that they are "Studio", "professional" mics
or "just like Bing or Sinatra" used, they are full of "you know what". Just need to "clear the air"
about that, as I'm seeing them listed all over the net under that false
info. These mics were never used for that, but
again have become very sought after for display / prop use and for "dummy
mics" in an interview / desk situation. Fits standard,
modern mic stand. Aluminum all in great shape. No dents, dings, pitting or
corrosion. Original cloth intact and clean with no yuckiness! Comes with "fixed
attachment" cable currently also "fixed" to stand which is included in
this case. If you wish us to remove it from the stand and install a
"prop" cable that can be done for an additional $20..

The
Model 644 is a highly directional dynamic microphone utilizing a combination
of a uni-direction "Cardioid
" pattern
and
distributed front vent design. This gives greatly
extended frontal pickup on axis, extending working distance
to over 2.5 times,
compared to present non-directional type microphones. Above 700 cps,
cancellation of sound at the rear and sides exceeds 20 dB providing
unequalled rejection of random noise, reverberation and feedback without
sacrifice of frequency response. The Model 644 allows much greater latitude
in loud speaker placement and will solve many specialized problems where
other microphones cannot be placed near the source
of sound.
