Then how do you think the microphone feels?

One thing I have noticed is a relationship between Flea Microphones and Wunder. Originally Wunder bought the bodies from Flea. I also noticed that Flea and Wunder build basically the same microphones, U47, C12, M49, M50.  Wunder is a USA distributer for Flea.

I pose the question of when buying a Wunder Mic, are you just buying a Flea?

BTW, Barry sent me his Tele-USA U47M, and I took the basket off, put it in the wood vise, and flattened it a bit.  The profile isn't exactly the same as my Neumann, but it's surely an improvement.  I didn't trust the welds on the basket to try to flatten it any further.  

BTW, I wish they nickel plated the basket screws, and did a translucent switch.  That would look so much nicer.  Maybe they changed that in the last couple years?

I also don;t understand why Tele USA didn't make their badges the same as on the real ones.  They did it on the 251.  It would have looked so much cooler.

They say the heart of Rock & Roll is still beating, which is amazing if you consider all the blow it's done over the years.

"The Internet enables pompous blowhards to interact with other pompous blowhards in a big circle jerk of pomposity." - Bill Maher

"The negative aspects of this business, not only will continue to prevail, but will continue to accelerate in madness. Conditions aren't going to get better, because the economics of rock and roll are getting closer and closer to the economics of Big Business America." - Bill Graham

I believe Wunder is the U.S. importer for Flea.  At least that is what was written to me some months ago in an email from Flea.


My... My... U-47... What have you done???!!!
