SHURE Gooseneck Wireless System - Instrument Microphone

The PGXD14/BETA98H Instrument Wireless System is part of the PGX-D wireless systems family. Includes PGXD4 receiver, PGXD1 bodypack transmitter, WB98H/C microphone, power supply, 2 AA batteries, carrying case, and user guide.

The Beta 98H/C is a premium cardioid condenser instrument microphone that clamps onto the bell of wind instruments or onto the rim of percussion instruments. The integrated gooseneck and ratcheting swivel joint allows the mic to be easily positioned and secured, and an isolation shockmount reduces the transmission of instrument 'key noise' and other mechanical noise. A gooseneck angle brace is included to provide better retention of the microphone placement during more active performances.
