windscreen built into the mic. Never tried one on my Shure or Astatic bullet mics, but I don't play those

A cap appears as an open circuit to low Depending on how it is wired, it is sending the high frequencies somewhere. volume pot to so you don't lose any high end with the volume pot. (That is installed in their mic... that they will "lose" the high end.) Actually, a "treble pass" circuit. On most guitars, when you turn the guitar down, On a Tele, you almost get a briter sound as you turn down because the turned all the way down... then ground "wins". :-) Hope this helps, (comments/questions welcome)
exactly what value cap Astatic uses; so I can try it out on my old JT-30. to offer the cap as a path to ground for high frequencies... in effect Not a whole lot of complex filtering you can do with one capacitor... an active circuit.

Bullet knock-off (I think), and 1) Pushed the cartridge as far back in th popped on the grill. Results? Less feedback, almost _too_ much bass camper, me!
