Here's a Sony C38 Condenser Microphone from the 1980's! Sony made some incredible condenser microphones, and the C38 was one of their best FET models. The C38 differs from the C-38B in that it only runs of off a 9V battery (no phantom power), but they are otherwise the same microphones. The C38 has a bright top end, with a dependable low end that can be rolled off via the different bass-roll off options on the back of the microphones. With Cardiod and Omni-directional settings, the C38 is versatile for vocals, guitars, drums, and more. If you've been looking for one of the best condenser microphones under $1k, this is the microphone for you. This C38 is in good overall condition with some imperfections to the paint of the body.
