Product Info
* Prices may vary. Check retailer for current pricing and availability.
The t.bone BD 500 Beta is a surprisingly capable boundary mic for the price. It's a solid option for drummers needing a budget-friendly kick drum mic or for piano recording where you want a clean, direct signal. It's also great for vocalists needing a decent stage mic that rejects some of the room noise.
