I use it for 1 year.

AS INSTRUMENT NO PICKUP, BUT AS PICKUP OF PERCUSSION, it does!

(On a violin, it makes me nosebleed!)

I compared to Beta 91, Crown PZM, Crown PCC160, C-ducer in capturing podorythmy / tap dancing by placing it on the dance floor. And it is better for this kind of application especially near the source.

If I use it as microphone "percussion" (it may well be on a bag ... to see the players bag) because it is null as acoustic instrument pickup (this is why it is originally designed), but rivals and even surpasses some type microphones "boundary" although it is a contact microphone (even better on stage, no risk of feedback!).

Its small size makes it invisible, no need for tripod either. He is there on stage and did his job without being seen.

His spinning fine looks pretty fragile. At the XLR (who is also the powersupply the microphone), to snatch it but little. This is not robust.

In Quebec, this microphone is used increasingly in the middle trad by foot-tapper and players bag. AND IT SOUNDS!
