Default Great deal on a microphone at MF

Musician's Friend has the MXL 990 condenser microphone on sale right now for $59.99. This is a pretty good deal I think. I have had a pair of these mics for around a decade and they have been great mics and for 60 bucks they are a steal. Just wanted to pass on the good deal if anyone is in the market right now.

Looks like the 990s and 990XL are also on sale...

Its hard to find a good mic for $60. Even a 58 is going to run about $100.

You're right, anyone looking for a simple and straight forward condenser, this is a bargain.

We use them at church for our acoustics. Nice mics overall. Well worth that price.
