My new restoration project (with all that free time 🤪). A 60s Sears Silvertone 1484. The plan is to replace the power cable with a grounded cable, replace all the caps, give the leatherette a good cleaning, an overall cleaning as well. Excited to get it fixed and set up for use at the studio.

Big thanks to Adam for shooting some film during a session with Greg Hill at Abandoned Studios.

Well this is a first for me. After getting my first Shure 545s I loved the characteristic of its mids so much I had to get another. So I bought this one, which is apparently a first generation 545s! The first round which had a “patent pending” label because Shure had not yet been granted the patent! Super cool.

Picked up these 4 mics recently. An RCA Varacoustic, an RCA 74b, a Shure 545, and a Synchron AU7a!! I’m very excited about the Synchron, one of the first FET condensers with a very warm flat frequency response.

I will be restoring all of these mics, I already built a converter cable and tested the Shure 546 so that’s ready for action. Next up is to re-ribbon the 74b and re-wire an XLR for it.

I’m still in my temporary studio space as the build out for the new space continues. I can still accommodate a full band so if you have some songs you’d like to record let me know and we can set up some sessions. 🐁

There have been turkey vultures hanging out in trees in front of our house eating a deer carcass the past few days. Well, one of them must have gotten hit by a car and died in our front yard. and I moved it to the back yard. These birds are so amazing, Alyssa and I love watching them when they come back to this area.

I’m working on a project that I’ll be sharing more information about in the coming months but right now I’m looking for Oneonta/Cooperstown based bands. So if you know of any bands or have seen/played shows with any Oneonta bands send me a message with their info! Thanks y’all!
