Prodipe GL-21 String Instrument Microphone

Developed under the direction of Ludovic Lanen, the GL21 Lanen microphone is specially designed for the recording and sound reinforcement of acoustic guitars, ukuleles, mandolins and dobros.

Equipped with an electret cell capable of handling 140dB, it will capture all the dynamics and nuances of your playing.

Its great linearity will perfectly respect the timbre and the sound of your instrument. Equipped with two clamps specially designed for guitars, ukuleles, mandolins and dobros, the GL21 will allow you to face all situations.

We have perfected an electret capsule that can take up to 140dB. At that level of performance the capsule will preserve the full harmonic envelope, which adds warmth to the sound of your instrument.

The GL21 Lanen has been designed for guitars, ukuleles, mandolins and banjos.

For the clamp, we chose to develop two sizes of clip, rather than one single adaptable clip:

The first type is for guitars with a thick soundboard or internally strengthened near the sound hole,

The second clip is smaller and curved in shape - the mic can be positioned on guitars or ukuleles whose soundboard ribs are near the sound hole towards the neck side.

As well as the simple mechanics of the thing, (and if you've ever lost a tiny screw on a small dark stage, you'll know what I'm saying), both clips are designed to keep your instrument safe from damage.
