Used Sennheiser E 609 Dynamic Microphone

The Sennheiser E 609 Silver is a supercardioid dynamic instrument microphone primarily designed for close-miking guitar amplifiers. 

Here's a breakdown of its key features and applications:

Key features

• Supercardioid Pickup Pattern: Provides excellent isolation of the sound source, minimizing bleed from other instruments on stage and reducing feedback.
• High Sound Pressure Level (SPL) Handling: Can withstand very loud sources like guitar amps without distorting.
• Lateral-Mounted Capsule & Flat Profile: Enables placement directly against the speaker grille, facilitating close miking and potentially eliminating the need for a microphone stand. This design feature is reminiscent of the classic Sennheiser MD 409.
• Wide Frequency Response: Captures the full range of guitar tone, from lows to highs, with a frequency response of 40Hz-15kHz (or up to 18kHz according to some sources).
• Neodymium Magnet & Lightweight Voice Coil: Contribute to the microphone's clear and detailed sound reproduction.
• Hum Compensating Coil: Reduces electrical interference and noise, particularly in live settings.
• Durable Metal Construction: Built to withstand the rigors of live performance and touring.
