When I first got my Gilchrist A3 back in 1993 I had a condenser mic installed that was inside the mandolin mounted at the end of the endpin plug. It worked really well for years and years before it didn't. I can't remember the name...it was something like "The Guitar Mic" or...? I want to go back to something like that because I just can't stand the transducer mode any longer. I prefer a good mic on a stand but when that won't work I need to be able to plug in.
