I swear I get asked on a DAILY basis from clients, friends and strangers alike, " Hey Al, what is the best mic (amp, compressor, eq, preamp etc.) to get?".
Answer, Elam 250 (Crown Macrotech 10000, Fairchild 670, GML 9500, Neve 1073 etc.)
Awesome Al, how much is that mic? Well if you can find one in good shape upwards of $20,000 dude.
What!!!!!!!! I ain't got that kinda dough!
Well how much do you have to spend?
I dunno I was thinking around $250.
Well in that case..................................................
Ah you're funny AL. You get so anxious, and/or impatient. You should never work in sales.
That is so not true. I have proven time and time again to many people that i make an excellent, terrifying even, salesperson.
Not to mention a great purchaser.
I know I know I'm just joshin ya. Don't get your knickers in a knot. It's just always funny how if you don't know exactly what a person wants to spend you just pick the most expensive thing you think of.
