Good for instrumental recording.
I play acoustic guitar, djembe, and viola, and this mic works wonderfully for all three. One thing to keep in mind- if using the mini plug to plug directly into a computer, make sure that your soundcard settings are NOT ajusted for an alternate microphone, but be sure to use the mic boost feature (if your soundcard supports it). Also, unless the mic will be less than 5 feet from the instrument, make sure you have a good hiss reduction filter with your recording software (but that's a given). Bes...

Works Great
This microphone worked great for recording from a piano straight to my pc. It may not be studio quality, but with a little hiss reduction it sounds pretty good. I would recommend it to anyone who doesnt want to go out and spend a couple hundred dollars on a expensive mic.

Great Microphone
Boy I was real surprised how heavy and sturdy this mic was. My kids have been doing karaoke with it all day and the sound is great. No hissing and it actually cut out my dog barking. I'm happy with my purchase!

I like it
I cannot think of anything to complain about. One thing, I wish it had is a velcro to collect or shorten the long cord when I'm not using it.

good product with short line
the sounds quality is good. Nothing to complain. and the mini-plug is very useful as microphone for yor PC. However, the line is too short. Not very convenient.

Works fine
No complaints. This is my first experience buying recording equipment/microphones. I wanted an inexpensive microphone that works well and that is what I got. I use it mostly with the "Singing Coach" software in order to train my voice. I plan on using it for online karaoke as soon as I'm able to sing well enough to not embarrass myself.

Fragile Construction
Arrived on time, and operational. Okay for Karaoke use, though not great.
Used it only for a few hours. Then an inquisitive adult-child decided to unscrew the the portion into which you speak from the handle upon which it was attached, and look inside...
It seems that the two parts easily unscrewed from each other. It is regrettable that there was some kind of a very thin (and sharp) aluminum ring (washer?) between the two parts, near the very thin wires that run from ...
