Nah, that's way too easy. Different guitars, tuned differently, with different players, on different songs, over the course of a year (I gotta see how long I can keep the demo mic before you ask for it back) with different pre's and different mic cords. Should be a killer shootout.

Well pardner, that is one dad gum mic I want to hear. 20 paces at High Noon. Last Man Standing. Vermin will be in attendance in all their splendor and glory. Don't make your contender too perfect though. That's the beauty of the older designs. I'll be the first to say that they km84 is not a perfect mic, but NOTHING else on the planet I live on can touch it IMO. They have character and beauty built in. Much like women. You date the supermodel, only to find that over time, she holds nothing for you. But another woman who is also beautiful, and full of character, humor and life.....now that's a keeper.

Looking forward to hearing the new one. I'ld like to sign up as your first beta-tester!! thumbsup
