I was thinking about buying the T.bone RB 500 version of this (same mic, just rebranded at Thomman.de), mainly for use on elecric guitars but also for cymbals. Has anyone got any good results from this?

I have two.
Bought one, loved it so much i bought another the following week.
I've just finished an album where most acoustic guitar and vocals were recorded with the RB500.
I've been using those constantly for the past 6 months, mostly in vocals.
They give a definite early 50's sound to the vocals and i find them exceedingly good with powerful female vocalists.
It's not a very bright microphone, nor does it have a strong output but that is expected with ribbons.
I find it a bit
essssy if equalized to favour the highs.
The RB500 is, IMHO, a very good buy.
