Amy Winehouse – Back To Black (Deluxe Edition)

Used for vocals on Back to Black, as stated in a February 13, 2014 Facebook post by sE Electronics, which features this video of Winehouse using the microphone to record a stripped-down version of "Love Is A Losing Game".

Remember our original sE2200a? Amy Winehouse used it to record her vocals on the Back To Black album. She also used it on this session. A great voice truly missed...

#throwbackthursday

The product description for the microphone's successor, the sE2200a II C, specifies the original as Winehouse's main vocal mic, as can be seen on old product listings from zZounds and Performance Audio.

The SE Electronics sE2200a II Cardioid is the single pattern version of the recently launched sE2200a II Multi-Pattern. So why change the classic sE Electronics sE2200a mic which has been used on so many classic tracks and albums such as Amy Winehouse's 'Back To Black'? The sE2200a was Amy's main vocal mic.

Used for vocals during the Daptone sessions of Back to Black, as is visible in ca. 2005 archival footage shown at 3:45 during this November 29, 2018 interview with Daptone founder and engineer Gabriel Roth/Bosco Mann.

Amy used cream* Danelectro 56 in the studio when she recorded her landmark album Back To Black. This picture of Amy Winehouse playing Danelectro 56 was first published by Salaam Remi on Twitter after Amy's death

UPDATE: It is actually a Spanish guitar Alcazar model, https://guitarrasbros.com/guitarra-clasica-espanola-alcazar. I contacted the manufacturer and was told that the model Amy owned was a special edition also a little smaller than the usual version.

In several articles, magazines and even in Mitch Winehouse's book "Amy, my daughter" it is stated that Amy and her father Mitch visited Francisco brothers' workshop during a vacation in Gata de Gorgos, Alicante, Spain where she got the classical guitar she'd later use for writing several of the tracks from Back to Black; highlighting too this was one of her favorite guitars amongst all the ones she had.
