All of the mics are gutted, cleaned and professionally wired with high quality, efficient American L.E.D lights. Gord will often install metal mesh screen in his mics. Some do not have them but it really comes down to how the mic is designed and how we want the light to be thrown. This 726 throws a much better pattern without inner screens as you'll see in the pics provided.
Pic # 2 shows this very model as well as a couple other mics from the Cardyne family and their basic characteristics.
This mic was often used in night clubs and by several singers who needed a quality mic to use. It made a great broadcasting mic as well.
This will make an excellent accent piece anywhere in the home, studio or office and this mic lamp will screw onto any microphone desk or floor stand. I do have several vintage stands available in my Ebay store however.
The 726 itself is in very good overall physical condition. The ribs are free of any dents or fractures and the satin chrome finish has just very lite wear. Zero fractures or deep scratches. One of the nicer examples I have offered. The E.V badge looks very nice and completely legible. The on / off switch on the mic itself does not operate the light. The switch is on the cable.
The joint mechanism on this mic has lots of tension and works perfectly allowing you to tilt the head backwards putting light wherever you need it. A cable connector is attached to the bottom of the mic as if there was a regular cable attached to complete the effect.
The cable itself is a high quality cloth covered item and has an older vintage feel to it. It's appx 9 feet in length and has an on / off switch as you can see in pic # 12. Simply plug this in and your good to go. I believe these LED's are rated at 50,000 hours. The LED's in this mic are quite strong as well.
This is an actual 726 mic...not a replica. I can't talk these lamps up enough. More like sculptures and one of the coolest lamps you could own and perfect for that mid century vibe and an excellent gift for just about anybody.
These are certainly strong enough to read a book next to.
I haven't had a 726 model LED lamp to offer in over a year now so this one might not last long.
MICROPHONE STAND SHOWN IS NOT PART OF THIS SALE...USED FOR DISPLAY PURPOSES ONLY.
Again, I do have several desk and floor stand available in my Ebay store if needed. This is a top heavy mic so you'll want a desk stand or floor stand with a heavier base.
And as always...
