I have that mic. Mine came with a cable installed that has the original 4 pin amphenol jack attached on the mic itself but with a standard XLR male at the other end of the cable. I don't mess with it as it's probably too hard to find a replacement. I also have another Shure Unidyne ball mic with a single pole connector and luckily also came with the cable (also an old Green Bullet with a hardwired 1/4" short cable). I use modern vocal mics on gigs but would love to use these sometime for a kick or when I master (ha) playing the harp better anyway. I think that demo sounded pretty good.
Hey man! Awesome, And thanks dude. Yeah they do sound great. Mine had the 3 pin jack -just like an XLR jack but different size kind of, but probably the same threading on the connector as yours. Hold on to that one :) I'd love to see your ball mic (what the hell is that?) I'm hoping to find the right cable or just resolder in a way that it's like the original but the modern connector.
@@TimPhoenixTV looking for a way to post a picture here. Until i do post one the model number is Model 5855A Unisphere A. It's a single pole conductor mic, came with a cable, one pole screw on end to 1/4 inch silver in color. I think this mic can still be gotten in working order and pretty cheaply.

@@Carlsings You can e-mail me, the mail is in my info or under any video I post. That' sounds like an interesting microphone. I'll search-engine it!
