Yeah I've heard great things about that too. The only problem is people do both mods at the same time. The first being free. The second expensive. Would love to hear the difference between a meshless 205 with stock and a meshless 205 with Lundahl. From what I've heard taking the mesh out makes the bigger difference of the two. I also heard it's good to put a bit of sound absorbing material to dampen the microphone case as there are concerns about it ringing once you take out all the mesh.
Here's an interesting thread:
Ribbon Mic Audio Samples: before/after transformer upgrade
The problem is the source on that test isn't dynamic, so I'm waiting for a test on a vocal or acoustic guitar. It might reveal a lot more.
