The sE Electronics Harp Blaser HB52
The Harp Blaster HB52 is a serious modern microphone made with the highest quality components. It's handcrafted entirely of metal and features a thick die-cast body with zinc alloy parts and chrome details. It not only withstands the uniquely harsh conditions a harmonica microphone can face every night, but it does so while delivering a significantly better sound compared to other harmonica microphones.
The microphone features a volume control using a Bourns® potentiometer and a diamond-patterned, knurled chrome knob, making it non-slip and reliable. If you prefer not to have a volume control, it can be disabled internally.
We opted to use an XLR connection instead of a tethered cable, a 1/4" jack, or a screw-on connector. This is often the Achilles' heel of harmonica microphones. A tethered cable can easily suffer a broken solder joint, turning the microphone into a paperweight until it can be repaired. An XLR connection offers better connectivity that doesn't become problematic or noisy (crackling and/or hissing) over time. The internal locking mechanism adds further signal security—in the event the cable is pulled, snagged, or stepped on, for example. However, the HB52's XLR connection's locking mechanism can also be easily overridden if you prefer.
As mentioned, this microphone isn't fragile. You can drop it, kick it, and/or hammer nails into it (though without damaging the paint). It's built to be a road-ready tool; it should last a lifetime!
Includes a beautiful leather storage pouch, but excludes wiring.
Microphone has an XLRm connection, a suitable cable starts with an XLRf connection, we have these available.
