    Studio recording. It would be better if it had threads to screw into a mike stand. It's a bit unsteady. There were no other choices.

  • Works great

    Perfect for home voice over recording set-up. I'm very pleased with its strength, lightweight simplicity. Holds a relatively heavy condenser mic with pop filter and shock mount.

    For the sake of doing business with who I enjoy doing business with, Guitar Center has it all. This item was functional, economical, and works perfectly. Thank you Guitar Center. And thank you to the sales associates that took my order on the phone. He was quite effective, informational, and I appreciated his opinion.

  • Not top of the line, but good.

    The clamp feature is perfect for those who don't want to drill through their tabletops. It doesn't sit as securely in the slot as I thought it would. The spring mechanism is strong. The cables get caught up when it turns around. You can use some twist-ties to help with that.

  • Good piece of equipment

    What is the thread size? I don't see that information anywhere. Is it 3/8 or 5/8?
