AKG c34 windscreen

So I have my second c34 but I have never had a actual windscreen for it. Anyone know where you might find one that fits?

I have one here I'll bring by one of these days.  Never actually used it.  It's a bit of a hack job, but it might just do the trick.  It's two medium thickness foams glued together with a dead rat cover that slips over it.

Kind of like the first "screen" I made by cutting the top off of one AKG c1000s screen and stuck the other on top...

I'm off to Ashville on Thursday so I should run into you before that. Thanks Bri.

i have looked for one that fits the c34 for a long time, and have not found anything. i've used one that is made for the c422, just to have something covering the mic.

Yep, I looked for a while too with no luck at all. I have the body specs & even tried to find a generic screen to fit but no luck.

I know you like, tape for people's approval and stuff, and wave your tapes around like they're your dick...  but even you can't actually think section tapes from philips sound good.

Just ordered at WS69 for $38.00 figure it is worth a shot. Hope it bakes it by Wednesday!

I did and I just sent them a fairly testy message for it. Right now I still have it coming but if I can get it elsewhere, I'll cancel. Its fine if it isn't in but don't say it will ship in 24 hours... Now its Monday and too late to do anything else for Asheville... >:(

I Emailed that other place to see what they can do.

That's where I got my custom foam and dead rat.  I forgot the price, but it was cheap.  The dead rat was very nice, but the foam...not so much, and doesn't fit as snugly as I expected.

Rebekah claims they can make one to fit the c34. I just sent her the exact dimensions so I'll see what they can come up with. Wonder if they can get it to me by Thursday ;)
