Hot blues harp tones.
The JT30 Roadhouse Harmonica Microphone is an exclusive version of this Astatic by Hohner handheld mic with volume control. The JT30 Roadhouse Microphone produces that classic, dirty Chicago blues harp tone.
The JT30 was introduced over 50 years ago as an inexpensive and rugged crystal element microphone for public address systems and Ham radio operators. Blues players discovered that the JT30's emphasis of the voice's midrange frequencies produced a raw, honking sound when they cupped their harmonica against broad front of this bullet mic. Over the years, the JT30 has become the favorite harp mic for many established blue harpists.
The JT30 Roadhouse uses the same mold for the mic housing that Astatic used to build the original JT30 mics. When played through a vintage-style tube amp, the frequency response of the JT30's crystal element duplicates the warm, slightly distorted "Mississippi Sax" tone that harp players crave.
Includes 20' of high-impedance 1/4" amp cable designed to fit the threads of the JT30 and a 1/4" male adapter that plugs directly into a guitar amp.

Comments about Astatic by Hohner JT30 Roadhouse Harmonica Microphone:
I purchased a JT 30 about 6 months ago. I quit using about 3 mos ago because of its weight and the noise made by contacting it with the Harmonica. This week I had left my finger mic at home and was shocked to find that the JT 30 did not work. I checked the cord and the problem is the mic. No recommendation here. McNeely Texas
Comments about Astatic by Hohner JT30 Roadhouse Harmonica Microphone:
Heavy, great "authentic" feel. Very little feedback. My only complaint is it sounds a little too "Clean". I expected a slightly deeper distorted sound. It's distorted, but doesn't quite have the low-end I expected. Still way better than playing a harp through a SM58. Great price. In all fairness this is my first bullet mic.
