The U47p was a standard U47 with first generation amp and transformer, issued around 1955, that had a bajonnet adaptor at the top where you normally would find the flat surface with female blade connectors for the usual mic head to be fitted.
Instead, this bajonnet connector made it possible to use the pre-war CMV3 capsules, either the lollipop shape (M7) or the torpedo head shape (SD omni, after the war equipped with the first generation KM53 capsule)
This U47 P version was issued for two reasons.
It allowed owners of the older mics to use the pre-war capsule heads (still state of the art in 1955) on the new U47 mic, and it allowed Neumann to get rid of the remaining stock of pre-war capsule heads.
I used to own such a mic with the M7 lollipop head-
Very different sound, due to the lack of body shadowing effect in the lollipop head, compared to the same capsule in the usual U47 basket . I recall it sounded very good.
Kind regards,
