Product Info
* Prices may vary. Check retailer for current pricing and availability.
The t.bone RB 100 is a surprisingly capable ribbon mic for the budget-conscious. Its warm, mellow character shines on acoustic guitars, especially for folk, blues, or vintage-inspired recordings. It’s a great option for home recordists or anyone wanting that classic ribbon sound without the premium price tag, just be prepared to juice the signal a bit.
