Nash PB-52 "Tele Bass" Butterscotch SND-50 Electric Guitar, from Nash

The Charter Oak s700 Microphone is a well-known broadcast microphone, which is why it's suprising and impressive to hear it perform very wonderfully as a microphone that records electric guitar cabinets and bass. The big and rich bottom end of this microphone translates to warm guitar tones, but at the same time it has a smooth and crisp top end that doesn't sacrifice a great deal of detail. At its low price, this is a great microphone to have in the studio for a wide variety of applications. For Bass SVT rigs, it's quickly becoming one of our favorite microphone choices, but is also does a nice job of reproducing well-balanced guitar tones, in particular, it's impressive at capture a lot of great low-end resonance, and top-end edge, but doesn't give you the typical muddy midrange and washed-out sounds you'd expect from a voice-over microphone. Definitely a nice microphone to have in the mic locker.
