The ultra-rare AKG D30 microphones in the Abbey Road collection #akg #microphone #studio

When Olympic Studios closed in 2009, Abbey Road Studios were fortunate enough to acquire some of their legendary microphones. This AKG D30 is one of those mics.

Used by The Rolling Stones, The Who, Jimi Hendrix Experience and Led Zeppelin as a kick drum mic, its sonic qualities helped to define the drum sounds of Charlie Watts, Mitch Mitchell, Keith Moon and John Bonham.

So cool, the fanciest akg ive gotten to play around and record with is the c414, I'd love to have a few sessions with that mic. Ive gotten to play around with some really old Telefunken mics, though that was lretty cool!
