Ex workshop spare part
If you restore or repair microphones, particularly vintage mic's then you will know how hard this mesh is to find (without buying by the square metre!)
This is the last microphone mesh I have found after my massive workshop cleanup/clear out
UNKNOWN MANUFACTURER - Microphone Mesh
I cannot recall where we bought this from or where it was made but I "think" it was USA sourced
COLOUR: Light grey/silver (although in some light it takes on a slight greenish Chrome appearance) I don't believe this is stainless steel but perhaps a Nickel plating
NO corrosion!
NON MAGNETIC (checked!)
GRADE: 120
DIMENSIONS:
192mm x 105mm
Yes, it is quite small but still useful for a restoration project microphone
COSMETIC CONDITION:
CLEAN
NO corrosion
Easily malleable and once pressed into shape, it tends to stay in position although it does have a slight reluctance to stay in shape (it has a slight shape memory)
Some light creasing (easily "flattened out") and usually the user will "pressure mould" this mesh into the required shape inside the microphone
Light Black pen marking the grade of this mesh - should be removeable with a spray of iso-alcohol or similar
To keep this mesh in the best possible condition I have now placed it flat onto a stiff cardboard backing and sealed in clear plastic
