i'd get to the doctor fast, before your blue ball turns black!!!!!! and i had no problem getting them when i was young, but it has been years since i've gotten them. |

black and blue balls? You gotta be careful with those things. You only get one set... I'd ease back on the hookers and blow.

I bought a couple last year at Long & McQuade in Toronto. $80 each or something like that. | |

My Ball is red! Actually I have a Kickball and use it on guitar and bass amps as well as kick drum. It has excellent transient response and a switch that lets you boost or cut 150 Hz. I got pretty good results on a stand-up bass as well. I purchased mine with a Ringer shock mount for $130 out the door at GC a couple of years ago. |

Hahaha! Didn't mean this all to sound they way it did. But you having such an odd mic, round dyanmic with +48, greatsounding and a 57 contender, why would they discon it? |

blue ball is my standard snare mic...love it! they're ok on toms as well, though not my favorite. I got three on ebay a couple years back for $150. Sold one, still have two! Although I could probably get by with just one.
