BluesKing777 Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 I love singing through my Shure Green Bullet! Perfect for blues singing! Except it is a new one with the volume control where there use to be a thread to mount to a mic stand on the vintage mics, so of course, we can't place mic on a stand - great for Harp Players but useless for singer/guitarists. I have been just using Gaffa Tape to tape it to a normal mic clip, and the next day it has the 'Droop' because the mic is such a heavy little eff..... This one: http://www.guitarcen...137-i1126529.gc There is a video of a guy melting a standard mic clip to shape. Before I destroy a whole lot of mic clips, does any one here have any clues for me before I buy an old vintage Bullet instead? Ooooh - some harp player has been spittin' in it for 50 years - eek!

L5Larry Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Modify a mic clip so that it has a little cup on it that the volume knob itself would slip into. It would even be a "quick connect". It also puts the mounted angle at the factory original position. I've got a box full of broken mic clips, post the diameter and height of the volume knob and I'll whip something up.

L5Larry Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 And I'll also need the distance between the vol knob and the cord. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluesKing777 Posted July 19, 2013 Author Share Posted July 19, 2013 Thanks L5 for the kind offer, but I am in Australia so.... I found a large clamp type mic clip that may do the trick - I will try it later. Meanwhile, here is a video for your amusement of what is happening in music rooms over the world as people read the Internet on how to attach a Shure Green Bullet Mic to a stand.....(I found this Youtube clip as the only video): http://www.youtube.c...h?v=qXjLnFzmp2k BluesKing777. Edit: even better is the "G-Rig" It would be way easier if Shure put away of attaching the thing to a stand, but people are peoples................................
