This is totally off topic but i desperately need some help tracking something down!!!!!!!
what im after..... is a bullet mic, old style radio mic/ham radio mic/table top mic/dispatcher mic! It's basically what old blues musicians use to play harmonica thru & gets a nice gritty/distorted tone if you sing thru it!
Pretty expensive on ebay, so im hoping one of you might see one on the cheap. will post a few pics, so you have an idea of what im looking for......

I have a 70s/ 80s style taxi office / tannoy mic on my desk at work but im guessing this isnt quite right?

I've got one just like the one on the left with the white cap. Mine is 100% black though. However, I am not selling it as it was used by my father's band in the sixties.

Don't worry about missing it. I checked it and it is hardly working anymore!

It was a typical rock & roll band: the band had their own numbers, but also did covers.

One of the coolest things in my house: my dad's record!
