Harpwrench ,..Not any shorted winding on this baby !
,..What he has is one of the fist mid Z's,.
This is what Guru David Kott says:
In 1952, the medium impedance model 99E86 was introduced, which was a 300 ohm element.
NOD,. has one of the first made,. 2 = 1952 -- 14 = April
Again,..Nice find !

Yep/ Medium impedance. That one is a medium impedance CR - I've never seen one of those before. It should be a GREAT element - the problem is finding the right transformer for it. A typical IMT made for low-to-high applications tends to boost these elements TOO much.

Hi Bro's i knew my comment below from another thread would stir some intrest.
i have a Low-z 300 ohms Shure Black Label
controlled reluctance element
its great for home use
louder than one would think,
i got no plans of fitting a transformer,
I remember way back Chuck Guney mentioned
he had a 300ohms Black label
in one of his ebay auctions,when he sold under
the moniker of MR SAX,
this one as i say is staying as is
i got me a stable of 4 Hi-z Black Backs
to keep me Happy
this Little Beuty is a great home microphone,
low-z CM are great for the bedroom blasters
with small 5-watt tube amps..
another Great ebay buy US-$52 Bucks
it's a keeper

I don't believe NOD wants to put a trans in it,.
He sure has a piece of history there being it's a 1952 - April,.
An for all anyone knows if Shure introduced them April 1952 he may well have the first one !!

Yo Bro Sparra the seller was asked to open the mic and let the punters have a look,
he was unwilling to open it up i took a punt
and won
when it landed i opened it up strait away
and pissed my my pants laughing,rushed inside
checked www.greenbulletmics.com
i emailed him thanking him for not opening
the mic and informing him how rare it was,
and next time punters ask
to open a mic i suggest he do it
the basterd abused me..
