blue spark microphone

hey there i have got a blue spark microphone on sale very cheap but the back side of the microphone (the silver thing) has a little bend on the arc so is it okay or does it makes an major difference /problem please help ?

this is common sense here:

if its working its fine and you got a great deal thanks to a minor cosmetic problem.... just baby it so the damaged section doesn't get any worse, after all its not a road microphone like a 57.

The folks at BLUE are very friendly and you may wish to write them to see if they can repair/replace the damaged section or send you a new piece to install yourself. I have dealt with them and gotten all sorts of gratis replacement parts for microphones I owned that took a spill. Though I was the 1st owner of those microhones and they were under warranty, the sort of abuse they got was not part of the warranty and the BLUE staff were eager to help me free of charge anyway.

GEAR:
  • Roland Juno-6
  • Gibson SG Standard
  • Vox AC30 Guitar Combo Amp
