the t.bone Ovid System Bass Clip

A ridiculously overpriced although necessary purchase for any bassist wishing to employ the excellent, and ironically incredibly reasonable, CC 100 gooseneck condenser microphone. Needless to say, this clip attaches to the afterlength between tailpiece and bridge, providing the microphone effective placement at the acoustic sweet-spot of the soundpost albeit at the expense of the player's ability to deploy the extended techniques of pizzicato and arco 'behind-the-bridge', at least on the A and D strings. The slots for these strings are an incredibly tight fight, something which I will generously describe as 'secure' although, being rubber, I imagine these will become more flexible over time and will hopefully do so not at the expense of the integrity of the product. Overall, a well-made item at an unnecessarily excessive price point.
