Heil PR 31 BW Dynamic Instrument Microphone

The Heil PR 31 BW is a short-body large diaphragm dynamic instrument microphone, essentially a PR 30 cut down for tight spaces. At around 4 inches long it mounts easily on toms, slips under cymbals or snare, and fits inside places like a Leslie cabinet.

It keeps the PR 30's large element and wide response, with strong rejection of nearby drums and other sources. Beyond the kit it suits guitar cabinets, brass, saxophone, piano and vocals.
