Schoeps SKC 200 Gooseneck Microphone (MK)

The 200 mm / 8″ gooseneck is handy for a number of reasons:

1) Getting a small mic for an inobtrusive stage/TV presence
2) For getting a small mic in a very tight space
3) To fit on the end of a boom pole for dialogue
4) For close instrument mic’ing on a fixed instrument mount
