A cool manufacturer - Shinybox

Post by vvv » Sun May 25, 2014 5:06 pm

Sometime ago I bitched here about receiving a broken 23L ribbon mic, used, offa the E-Bog.

Just want to mention the owner, Jon, contacted me because, he said, he couldn't stand to have one of his mic's out here in bad condition.

See, I posted about my probs re-ribboning it and how I ended up with using regular aluminum foil ...

Anyway, he worked with me on getting it fixed, and got it back to me fast, and you can hear it on room mic's on all guitars, all vox and tambo's on this.

Jon / Shinybox is the *pinnacle* of customer service. We've had a pair of their mics for almost 8 years now and they still get used, pretty much, everyday.

This is cool. I have a Shinybox 23 I bought from Jon many years back that has fallen into a bit of disrepair. This thread has inspired me to contact him to see if it's worth getting it working again.
