No, this is not the exact same microphone he uses, but it is really close. The reason why it can't be the same is, that he built a custom capsule with his sound engineer. But the body looks identical. At 1:13 you can get a great look of the side where you can see that it is the same. You can buy it here: http://www.thomann.de/de/sennheiser_ew_135_g3_a_band.htm?ref=search_rslt_Sennheiser+EW+135+G3+A-Band_294462_0 Last I've got to mention that it is a 865 condenser microphone capsule, mostly used for studio recording. But you can find variations for it. The reason why I chose this one is, that it was mentioned by Ed Sheeran's sound engineer, that he uses a custom 865 capsule. I don't know if it's a big difference.
