3.0 out of 5 stars
It shags over time if extended with an averagedly-weight mic mounted, December 10, 2009
This review is from: OnStage MSA7020TB Telescoping Microphone Boom Black 32 to 48 Inch
This boom can be extended quite long, and that's what I needed. But even with just an SM58 mounted, the boom will slowly shag if I extend it for just 32" (it failed miserably when mounted with a Studio Projects C1 condenser). I tried to tighten the neck bolt as much as I could (even using a wrench), but it still shags, which is really annoying. I may have to open up the neck to do something about it to stop it from shagging.
I'm too lazy to return it, so I stopped using it and have gone back to an older mic boom, also made by On Stage. Thic mic boom can only be extended to 32", but it's much more heavy-duty and never shags on me.
Buy another brand, if you need a mic boom to support any sort-of-heavy microphone.
