National WM-706 Ribbon Microphone
Here’s a National WM-706 Ribbon microphone from the 1960’s! These National microphones were made in Japan with high quality like many of the other Japanese ribbon microphones out there. The WM-706 is uni-directional, a a horseshoe magnet completely blocks the backside of the ribbon. This lessens the proximity effect, but creates a unique bright tone for a ribbon microphone that translates well on acoustics and other sources that don’t need a boomy sound. This microphone has been re-ribboned and has a new XLR cable! If you’ve been looking for a unique ribbon option, this is the microphone for you!
