TELEFUNKEN ELA M 251E Vintage Restoration 

Vintage Tones recently acquired this extremely rare example of a historic Ela M 251E tube recording condenser microphone. It was originally sold to Long View Farm recording studio in Massachusetts by Mercenary Audio. When we got the mic in, it was badly in need of restoration, which was done by Telefunken | USA. The parts of the microphone that were salvageable were salvaged, and the rest of the parts were replaced using the same parts that are used in Telefunken | USA’s new version of the Ela M 251E.  A more detailed description of what is original and what has been replaced can be found on the home page.
