We recently picked this thing up.  Never seen one before. Not much info on the net. Any info on specs, sound and usage would be great!

Cool.. Thanks alot!  Maybe I will try it out on one of my Rigs.  I am taking the audio rack off the Globe king soon.  Maybe it will be a decent match.

Looks like the one Elvis used in the 50's.

Any idea what model?  Just curious.  Hard to tell from the picture.  Almost looks like my 55, but not sure.  Thanks

He mainly used the 55.  Other mics of course, but there are stories of him refusing to go on stage without one.
