Cheap, but effective

Yeah its basically just a cheap pickup in a tin can that you build yourself but its not bad. I was going for Les Claypool type of thing and this gets close I suppose. And even if it doesn't its still a decent product for 20 bucks. I would probably recommend this if you want that kind of sound but (like me) can't afford a harmonica microphone at the moment.
