AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Description
Wired stage microphone, "Performer" model, presented in its original case with protective foam. The visible side shows a cylindrical body with a matte grey finish, topped with a spherical black grille with dense metal mesh. The inscription "PERFORMER" is clearly visible in white letters on the black ring located at the base of the grille, typical of professional microphones from the 1980s-1990s. A green stripe encircles the upper part of the body, giving it a sober and instantly recognizable style, often associated with vintage audio aesthetics.
The overall design prioritizes robustness and ergonomics, with a cylindrical grip and no visible rough edges on the front. No buttons or switches appear on the photographed side. The microphone is carefully embedded in custom-cut foam, inside a rigid black case whose lid is partially visible in the photograph. This type of presentation is characteristic of microphones intended for stage, recording, or portable sound reinforcement.
The body surface has a uniform finish, with no major signs of wear or apparent scratches on the visible part. The metal grille shows no deformation or signs of oxidation on the front. The ensemble suggests solid construction, typical of professional or semi-professional audio equipment from the last quarter of the 20th century.
The sleek style, matte grey hue, black ring with white inscription, and green stripe are visual elements sought after by retro audio equipment enthusiasts, particularly for sound reinforcement, home studio use, or as a decorative piece on a desk or in a musical space.
No specific brand or additional manufacturer reference is legible on the photographed side, apart from the inscription "PERFORMER". The connectivity, bottom, and back of the microphone are not visible in the photo, in accordance with the original case presentation.
Condition
Used item, sold as is. Visually in very good condition on the visible side, with no apparent major defects. The display case and foam are also in good condition on the shown part.
Did you know? The term "Performer" was frequently used by several manufacturers in the 1980s-1990s to designate dynamic microphones intended for stage use. This type of microphone, robust with a spherical metal grille, generally offers excellent feedback resistance and recognized reliability for spoken or sung vocals.
