The Soundhole Clip is covered in rubber to prevent damage to the sound hole. If your guitar does not have an endpin, purchase a spare Soundhole Clip to act as a strain relief (see below).

THE GUITAR MIC $189
Need a guitar microphone with great sound, high volume, and an XLR cable? Check out the Guitar Mic. It's a professional quality, miniature mic for sound reinforcement of the acoustic guitar.
The mic mounts on the front surface of the guitar just inside the sound hole. This placement results in high volume before feedback occurs, and excellent isolation from the singer. A Soundhole Clip is supplied for mounting.
A mic mounted inside the sound hole normally sounds boomy, but the frequency response of the Guitar Mic rolls off in the low frequencies to compensate. The result is a natural, non-boomy tone. That roll-off is in a circuit inside the XLR connector.
Because the Guitar Mic has a permanently attached 8-foot XLR cable, there's no need to drill a hole in your guitar for an endpin jack. The mic requires 12-48V phantom power which most mixers provide.
Features:
The Guitar Mic offers a very natural sound for flamenco guitars, as you can hear in the recording demo below. Because it is a microphone and not a pickup, it sounds "acoustic" rather than "electric", and it picks up body tapping as well as string sounds.

Guitar Mic: Its XLR connector plugs into a mixer with phantom power. If the mixer does not have phantom power, use a phantom power supply between the mic and mixer, such as the ART Phantom I or Behringer PS400. Or use an acoustic amp with a phantom-powered XLR mic input, such as a Fishman Loudbox 100, AER Compact 60, Schertler Unico, or Acoustic Image Coda/Ten2.
Guitar Mic B: Battery powered. Its 1/4" phone jack plugs into a guitar amp, wireless mic transmitter, or direct box. The direct box can plug into a mixer.
