Bought these for general purpose studio work.
The are excellent on Acoustic Guitar, Overheads, Even vocals.
On several occasions we have preferred these to the Nuemann KM 184, which says a lot.
They sounds fabulous and set well in the mix, providing a sound that responds to EQ when needed.
Overall a great microphone choice and a bargain at the price.
The Rode warranty is also very good, but I never needed it.
