Description: Hello and welcome to The House of Chrome. You are looking at a classic older general purpose microphone made by Electro Voice in the 1950's. This is the earlier 2nd generation 630 that has the polished chrome housing and looks very good despite the typical wear but make no mistake it functions perfectly with a strong 100% signal and set at high impedance. It comes with the period longer cable in which to operate. Pic # 2 shows this very model in an old E.V catalog I have showing the mics basic characteristics. Pic # 3 shows Jerry Lee Lewis using one of these very mics. Probably used an E.V 630 singing Great balls of Fire at some point in his career. This mic was typically used for dispatch and broadcasting purposes but was even used for singing for live events. These happen to make excellent harp mics today however due to it's dirtier higher pitched tone being void of bass. The mic housing / head is reminiscent of the jet engines being used by several American and Soviet fight planes of the 1940's and 50's. The look was very popular but by the 1960's the look was dated and just not as popular as the earlier models were. The 70 + year old microphone has typical wear as you can see in pictures mostly in the form of a few heavier scuff marks and tiny scratches. The threads for the cable and stand are perfect with zero stripping. The E.V label looks very good and completely legible. Overall this piece is an easy 7 on a scale of 1 - 10. Again, it works like new and will do you justice. The joint mechanism works fine with plenty of tension. The on / off switch works great as well. MICROPHONE STAND SHOWN IS NOT PART OF THIS SALE...USED FOR DISPLAY PURPOSES ONLY. The mic comes with a longer cable that is appx 15 feet in length and has the male 1/4 inch end connector for use with most audio equipment. The cable is soft, pliable and free of damage. No exterior stains. As with all my vintage microphones for sale... I can promise you will be happy with it for the price paid. If not...I have a no hassle return policy.
