Played Narooma Blues Fest with The Backsliders on Sunday and used my new Roger Nelson KingTone Mic – a chopped turner with CM element and VC – Wow! what an amazing mic! I was played through a 4×10 Fender tweed Blues Deville with a Lone Wolf Harp Break (recommended) and this mic really pumped!

I can definitely recommend getting a mic from KingTone if you’re in the market for a new bullet that packs a punch.

 

 

Going on up the line  using backing tracks….fun  https://www.facebook.com/roger.nelson.733450/videos/10153458692209923/

Two Shure 520s with new volume pots installed …on the rear to allow full cupping. Broderick Smith owns these  ( The Dingoes, Carson etc) and he has ripping black CR s in them.  Sitting on by little cigar box amp I made which has been great for recording.
