Hi. I need a shock mount to fit the MXL V67g or V67i mic (and maybe others...I don't know which others share that form factor). I have read that MXL's official shock mount for these mics, the MXL 57, leaves a lot to be desired. It doesn't actually fit very well, the felt inside the enclosure isn't secured well, it's hard to fit the shock mount to the mic and secure it, and if you need to remove the mic from the shock mount you will scratch your mic. Not very encouraging. So has anyone found a 3rd party shock mount solution for these mics? Thanks!

The Samson SP01 would be an option then

It has a captive nut for attaching to the mic, but that nut can be popped out pretty easily - a stick of wood and a firm tap with a hammer will pop it right out.

The one I have was opened up a little to fit my Oktava ribbon mic, and that hole is about 1 1/16". It would be a little loose on the base of your mic, but once you get the nut tightened up it should work fine. The hole is probably about 1 1/32" once you get the nut out.

beats the pants off a binder-clip mount, and for no more money.
