Sterling Audio ST33 FET

Cardioid Pencil Condenser Microphone

The Sterling ST33 is a medium-diaphragm pencil condenser with cardioid pattern and solid-state circuitry.

The mic body is nickel-plated brass with black finish. The head and grille are stainless steel.

A 12dB/Octave high pass filter at 75 Hz is switchable on the mic body. A second switch activates a -15dB attenuation pad.

This Class-A FET mic is based on the Groove Tubes GT-33. Unlike the GT-33, the mic does not have swappable capsules.

The mic ships in a padded flightcase with an elastic shockmount (p/n HM-1).

The mic was released in 2006.
