This new Bullet Buddy has improved print quality and is made from a flexible but very tough material (TPU). It has been designed specifically for hands-free use. It is smaller than the original Bullet Buddy and more comfortable to use in a neck rack. It omits the sound chamber of the original Bullet Buddy's design so that the mic's element is brought as close as possible to the harmonica for maximum 'compression' of the sound.
It can still be used hand-held if you wish or with the appropriate Ammo clip. It also supports the same set of mic adapters that the other types of Bullet Buddy use.
- This listing does not include any microphones, neck racks, harmonicas or mic clips. Only the Bullet Buddy and appropriate microphone adapters
^ The Bullet Buddy has been designed to fit the Konig & Meyer 14615 neck rack specifically. Other types of neck racks may also be suitable but have not been tested by us
^^ We also design and make Ammo Clip bullet mic holders. These Ammo Clips still support their intended microphone when attached to the Bullet Buddy with the appropriate microphone adapter.
