Limited to just 300 pieces worldwide, this special edition combines the classic U 47 fet design with an exclusive matte black finish, Bon Scott graphics, his signature on the microphone body and a premium black wooden presentation case complete with a commemorative booklet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"951\" data-end=\"1242\"\u003eThe booklet includes an interview with legendary producer Harry Vanda, who worked alongside George Young on AC\/DC's early recordings and explains why the U 47 fet became Bon Scott's microphone of choice. Part of the proceeds from every microphone also supports Support Act Australia Charity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-section-id=\"gjsqo3\" data-start=\"1244\" data-end=\"1285\"\u003eBuilt on the Legendary U 47 fet Design\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1287\" data-end=\"1556\"\u003eThe Bon Scott Edition delivers exactly the same audio performance as the standard Neumann U 47 fet. It retains the original K 47 large diaphragm condenser capsule and the distinctive oversized output transformer that helped establish the microphone as a studio classic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1558\" data-end=\"1929\"\u003eOriginally introduced in 1972, the U 47 fet evolved from the famous valve-powered U 47 by replacing the vacuum tube with advanced FET electronics. This design increased headroom, improved reliability and enabled the microphone to capture significantly higher sound pressure levels without compromising the rich tonal balance that engineers associate with the U 47 family.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-section-id=\"v16rh1\" data-start=\"1931\" data-end=\"1979\"\u003eClassic Neumann Sound with Modern Performance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1981\" data-end=\"2348\"\u003eThe K 47 capsule produces the smooth midrange, controlled high frequencies and gentle presence boost that have made the U 47 fet a favourite for professional recording studios for decades. The carefully voiced presence region between approximately 2 kHz and 5 kHz allows vocals to project clearly within dense mixes while maintaining a natural and balanced character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2350\" data-end=\"2648\"\u003eThe oversized output transformer contributes weight and depth throughout the midrange and low frequencies while preserving excellent transient response. Together, these components deliver a detailed yet authoritative sound that remains highly regarded for modern rock, pop and acoustic productions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-section-id=\"wustk0\" data-start=\"2650\" data-end=\"2692\"\u003eDesigned for High Sound Pressure Levels\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2694\" data-end=\"3063\"\u003eThe U 47 fet Bon Scott Edition excels when recording demanding sound sources. It comfortably handles sound pressure levels up to 137 dB, increasing to an impressive 147 dB when the integrated 10 dB pad is engaged. This exceptional headroom allows engineers to capture powerful vocal performances, loud guitar amplifiers, bass cabinets and kick drums without distortion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"3065\" data-end=\"3237\"\u003eThe microphone also offers an impressive dynamic range of 119 dB, allowing it to reproduce subtle performance details alongside extremely loud sources with equal precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-section-id=\"1jsh4qv\" data-start=\"3239\" data-end=\"3265\"\u003eFlexible Studio Control\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"3267\" data-end=\"3548\"\u003eNeumann equips the U 47 fet Bon Scott Edition with practical controls that simplify recording sessions. Rear-mounted switches provide instant access to the 10 dB pad and low-cut filter, allowing engineers to optimise the microphone for different sources and recording environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"3550\" data-end=\"3854\"\u003eA dedicated 6 dB output attenuation switch located beside the XLR connector reduces the output level before it reaches the microphone preamplifier. This proves particularly useful when pairing the microphone with vintage or lower-headroom preamps that can overload with high-output condenser microphones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-section-id=\"1i6xfc6\" data-start=\"3856\" data-end=\"3887\"\u003eProfessional Mounting System\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"3889\" data-end=\"4174\"\u003eThe microphone includes Neumann's distinctive one-sided swivel mount, which allows fast and accurate positioning in the studio. The mounting system keeps the microphone secure while providing excellent flexibility for close placement around instruments, amplifiers and vocal positions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-section-id=\"dyk7rc\" data-start=\"4176\" data-end=\"4208\"\u003eExclusive Collector's Edition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"4210\" data-end=\"4501\"\u003eBeyond its recording performance, the Bon Scott Edition offers genuine collector appeal. The matte black finish, engraved graphics, Bon Scott signature and limited production run distinguish it from the standard U 47 fet while preserving the microphone's professional recording capabilities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"4503\" data-end=\"4685\"\u003eThe exclusive presentation box and accompanying historical booklet make it equally suitable for professional studios, collectors and dedicated fans of classic rock recording history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-section-id=\"u2mkgv\" data-start=\"4687\" data-end=\"4740\"\u003eWhy Choose the Neumann U 47 fet Bon Scott Edition\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"4742\" data-end=\"5313\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1mibg8c\" data-start=\"4742\" data-end=\"4823\"\u003eDelivers the authentic sound and performance of the legendary Neumann U 47 fet.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"12us761\" data-start=\"4824\" data-end=\"4906\"\u003eCaptures loud vocals and instruments with exceptional clarity and huge headroom.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1ailm4v\" data-start=\"4907\" data-end=\"4985\"\u003eProduces rich midrange detail that helps vocals remain clear in dense mixes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"10kerko\" data-start=\"4986\" data-end=\"5060\"\u003eIncludes exclusive Bon Scott artwork and premium collector presentation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"334fcr\" data-start=\"5061\" data-end=\"5163\"\u003eOffers practical recording flexibility with integrated pad, low-cut and output attenuation controls.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"uzuyvs\" data-start=\"5164\" data-end=\"5251\"\u003eProvides long-term value through a worldwide limited edition of only 300 microphones.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"6ndcun\" data-start=\"5252\" data-end=\"5313\"\u003eSupports Support Act Australia Charity with every purchase.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"5315\" data-end=\"5318\"\u003e","brand":"Sennheiser UK Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57939030671743,"sku":"ITM011376","price":3610.83,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0707\/4915\/9716\/files\/Neumann-u47bonscott-kmr5.jpg?v=1783604309","url":"https:\/\/kmraudio.com\/products\/neumann-u-47-fet-bon-scott-edition","provider":"KMR Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
