    Very Chilled Legumes!
    When you say period mic, what years are you talking about and are you talking about a fixer upper?

    Built for use with a high impedance mic. So any crystal mic will work FB but I'm betting old Leo had a D-104 in mind for it.

    Or a JT-30, the "poor man's D-104!" <-- That's a link.

    Strange how the old JT-30 ended up being the perfect "harmonica mic" and is still in use today. Something meant to be a cheap PA mic ends up being a legend.

    There are alot of astatic mics in use. I suspect that continue for years and years.
