Yo All you Old Kustom Bubbas, Cool
I Been hiding and playing alot this last year and starting to get as old as ED!! Laughing Yo Ed What's up? Got a serious Kustom stable of 2Many amps and the old 69" K200B-5 is still as sweet as ever. I show it off every time someone visits my studio/shop.

However I just got a Kustom KM-2 Microphone off eBay.

Can't find any specs? Any of yous guys ever use one of these mics? I'm guessing it's just a Kustom Ohio China Cheapo!!!

Any Thoughts or Knowledge of these Kustom mics ? Confused

Is it a chrome grill snow ball type mic with a screw on cable connector like in the second to the left catalog set of pictures in the k200 literature section on this site?
If so, its a unidirectional mic and will feedback like hell if used for PA use, if its not a snow ball, thsn yea, its a china mic!

No, None of that, It's got a black screw on cover. I opened it up yesterday. Seems heavy duty & built solid. Looks fairly new and foam inside is clean. Will test it out tomorrow. For $12 beans I can't complain and it can be a toy for the grandkids if it doesn't work out if nothing else. Thanks Steven
