The most characteristic sounding mic I have ever owned. It is so raw and natural. Extremely warm and suprisingly versatile. This is my favorite mic and costs less than half of my other previously favorite mics.

I love this microphone

I used the Fat Head to record my latest composition, a Jazz acoustic guitar duet. The sound was very warm, like you would expect from vintage equipment. I have not found anything not to like about this microphone yet.

Fantastic

Wide range if capability, amazingly warm and rich sound, highly sensitive and packing punch. Beautiful might I add.

I've been using it so far to mic my guitar amp and really like the sound I'm getting. It's rich and full and when used in combination with some other mics(sm-57)gives a great a balanced sound.

Great mic for the price

I use the mic to amplify an acoustic guitar. I want a nice warm tone and I want the tone to be essentially the same as the unmic'ed tone only louder. This is pretty much what I get. ...
