[QUOTE="Bennett Prescott, post: 17598, member: 4"] Re: miking recorders Hey Brian, I might be able to tell a Prescott instrument from a few yards away, but you'd probably have to look for the stamp. All our instruments are marked ''T. Prescott'' over a serial number on the centers and sometimes heads. The feet just have a serial number. Listen for the ones that sound really good? 8)~8-)~:cool: I have actually had the pleasure, once in my life, of being asked in casual conversation if I was ''that'' Prescott, which was kind of fun. However, my father is really the ''brand'', and he knows every one of his customers by name. That's what you get when you make less than 100 instruments a year at an average price of about $2,000. There's ''micing recorder consorts'' and then there's ''micing recorder consorts''. You can spend a lot of money, but fortunately it's a very midrange instrument and fairly loud, so I doubt you would see much of an improvement even if you spend 10x as much. [/QUOTE]
