    Description

    PLEASE READ!!!!! Bulletini is a high impedance microphone. Your best option is a Screw-on to 1/4" cable.
    We offer the ones that Greg builds himself. Greg highly recommends them.
    If you do not order Greg's cable then you will need a Switchcraft 332 adapter (for use with your own guitar cable) - to use Bulletini. Both are available as an add-on in the drop down menu above "Add to Basket" button. You only need one or the other, but you are welcome to order both. The prices are better here than ordering separately. Please ask any questions before ordering.
    Blues harp players love bullet-shaped mics. But they can be big, heavy and hard to cup, which is essential for great tone. Finally, there's a tiny bullet mic with huge tone, thanks to The Heumann Element

    . (Beware of impostors! Only Bulletini has this proven element. See below for videos.)
    There have been sub-sized harp mics on the market for years. However our favorite vintage elements - Shure CM and CR's, Shure, Astatic and Brush crystals - don't fit shells much smaller than the traditional "JT30-size" bullets. In order to produce smaller mics, builders resort to using small, inferior elements. Their sound just doesn't measure up.
    Bulletini is different. Bulletini uses The Heumann Element
    tm
    . The Heumann Element is a brand new high impedance dynamic element developed specifically for harp players. It is in fact the ONLY element ever developed specifically for harp. It is made from a modern vocal mic element to which Greg makes both mechanical and electrical modifications. It has big, fat tone with plenty of bass. Ronnie Shellist says it reminds him of a vintage Ceramic element but with more output. So far it makes every small amp it has been tested with, including Kalamazoo, Memphis Mini and the Harp Train 10 sound better than anything else I know.
    "I think The Heumann Element is exciting. It's remarkable that there is finally a new microphone element that harmonica players can use for great tone. The Heumann Element is The Future of harp mics!"
    -Charlie Musselwhite - September 2015
    The Bulletini helps beginning and intermediate players sound better, but pros like it too. Just ask Billy Branch, Jon Gindick, Adam Gussow, Deak Harp, Aki Kumar, JJ Milteau, Darrell Nulisch, Charlie Musselwhite, Mickey Raphael, Andy Santana, Ronnie Shellist, Hank Shreve... the list is growing!
