Good: Signs of usage with the possibility of minor dents.
The AKG C1000 S is a versatile small-diaphragm condenser microphone designed for recording, live-sound, ENG/EFP and video-production applications. It combines a rugged metal body and gold-sputtered capsule with flexible switching features for instrument, vocal and mobile usage.
