CLIP-ON MICROPHONES FOR ACOUSTIC INSTRUMENTS

If you want to convey the sound of your instrument faithfully to your audience, you've come to the right place. The Bartlett miniature clip-on microphones sound beautiful and are easy to attach. They are recommended for soloists, duos, and acoustic groups without drums or electric instruments.

Unlike a pickup, these microphones capture the delicate timbre of your instrument's wooden surfaces, air cavity and strings. They sound acoustic, not electric, making them perfect for old-time string bands, bluegrass groups, string quartets, and singer/guitarists.

Mounting accessories make it easy to attach and remove the mic -- and position it for best sound. Supplied application guides suggest some effective mic placements.

Compared to a stand-mounted mic, these tiny microphones offer less clutter on stage, provide more consistent volume and tone, and allow freedom of movement. You are not tied to one mic position. And no more heavy mic stands to lug around!

We designed the GLM-100 and GLM-200 mics at Crown, and our new mics shown below are the next-generation models.
