Can anyone give me some advice on modifying an Astatic T-3. I picked up this mic for an alternative sound to the Green bullet and Blues Blaster I'm playing thru. It's got an old Turner element wired thru the swivel and down about a 3 inch barrel to the mic stand. I have removed the 3" barrel and replace the old connector with a male XLR and recessed the connector into the swivel. Here's where I need some of the resident knowledge of the list. Have most of you that modified the T-3 removed the swivel and just wired thru the opening in the bottom of the mic shell, or have you struggled to keep the swivel part of the mic. I'm thinking of losing the swivel but thought I would consult the list and see what advice I could get. Also are those elements Hi or low Z?
