This is a VERY RARE edition of this mic! There were only 200 of these made! This is a regular Beyerdynamic M160 ribbon mic, BUT it's the special 50th Anniversary Edition (released in 2007), and it is in the original chrome finish! It's a much nicer looking finish compared to the regular version. It comes with a beautiful wooden box, shockmount clip, stand adapter, extra shockmount bands, user manual, original warranty good until September 2017, and lab-printed frequency response chart of this exact mic!This mic is Serial Number: 16181One side of the mic has the "beyerdynamic)))) M 160" logo, and the other side reads "1957 - 2007".Besides being an amazing sounding mic, this is also a collector's piece since there were only 200 of these made!I bought this mic new in 2007 from Sweetwater. I have taken GREAT care of it, so it is in the same condition as it was when I bought it new! I have used it a few times in the studio only for drum overheads, percussion, and acoustic instruments, and it is an AMAZING sounding mic! Condensers just can't get the realistic sound of good ribbon mics.I will pack it very securely, and shipping includes insurance for the amount of the winning bid.______________________________The M160 turns 50!
