Manufacturer's description

Like Father. Like Son.

The WA-47jr is an FET transformerless version of the highly renowned classic ‘47 microphone that has been used on countless hit records for the last 50+ years. The WA-47jr utilizes the same "true '47" k47 style capsule found in our flagship WA-47 tube condenser microphone. The WA-47jr is fully discrete, has 3 polar patterns and is designed for pro studio, home studio, live, and broadcast applications. The WA-47jr sounds great on vocals, acoustic/electric guitars, acoustic/electric bass, drums, piano, strings, brass/woodwind instruments, and an array of other sources.

Quality components make a better mic.

The WA-47jr proudly utilizes a custom k47 style capsule reproduction, designed with the same hole pattern and frequency response as the vintage part. Our version of this capsule (model# WA-47-B-80v) is carefully manufactured by an Australian capsule manufacturer with careful precision and repeat-ability. The WA47jr's low-noise and discrete signal path then paired with an excellent true '47 style capsule allows this mic to obtain a very similar tone to the classic ‘47 microphone at a much lower price tag.

Package Includes: Microphone, Shockmount, Hardmount, Zipper storage pouch.

3 Polar Patterns: Cardiod, Figure-Of-Eight & Omnidirectional

High Pass Filter: A 70hz high pass filter is available for reducing rumble and other subsonic information.

-10dB Pad: 
A -10dB pad switch is available on the WA-47jr. The pad exists internally within the active circuitry.
