Sennheiser Professional e 609 Silver Super-Cardioid Instrument Microphone,Wired, Wireless

Perfect guitar mic!

Excellent microphone for micking a guitar amp, love the fact you can hang it over the cab and no mic stand is required. Well made and sounds excellent, I am of the opinion it has better frequency range and sounds better than the Sure SM57. Love it!

This mic was meant to be draped over an amp or to be used on a stand so it’s more versatile than a sure. Sounds amazing and is only $100. I don’t think you can get a better mic for the price. All of my friends who own them rave about them too. I whole heartedly recommend.

Stunning accuracy, transparency, frequency range, and impressive SPL handling - can see why this is a standard part of live setups. Finding this to also have application in near-field audio lab measurement.

Love the build quality, light weight and sound!

This is sold as an amp mic, but really it can be used for almost anything. Stick it in front of any acoustic instrument. It even works as a vocal mic. For the money this is just about the best mic you are going to get.

I have done some gigs where I used venues backline and this mic was used a few times. Liked the ease of use and size. Picked this up for my own rig and very happy with it. Cant beat the price and I find comprable to my SM57.

Ive owned one of these for a few years. I bought it because supposedly it worked well on guitar amps. I ended up not using it much. It seems too bright and brassy for me. It might work well in combination with a condenser mic a few feet away from the speaker, but on its own, I have found little use for it. These days Ill put up this mic and an SM57 and record guitar with both. Nine times out of ten Ill actually use only the SM57 at mixdown. I guess Im not a big Sennheiser fan. An e905 that I bought for snare also sounds tinny and seldom gets used.

hangs nicely on the amp and the sound is great

Perfect for gtr amps
