'The V7 in a word…Perfectamundo!' – Billy F. Gibbons

This special edition V7 BFG is the signature vocal microphone for the one and only Billy F. Gibbons. Best known as the guitarist and lead vocalist of the legendary American rock band ZZ Top, Billy Gibbons consistently ranks as one of the greatest guitarists of all time. The Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame inductee and iconic blues-rock guitarist from Texas has been performing on the road for decades, and is still musically hyper-active with The Kings of Chaos, the BFG's and – last but definitely not least - ZZ Top!

Innovative, Specialised Aluminium Voice Coil
The DMC7 dynamic capsule in the V7 BFG has been custom-developed for a crisp, open sound that perfectly captures your voice in the most natural way you've ever heard on stage - and its sophisticated supercardioid capsule design helps isolate your voice from other instruments, ensuring vast amounts of gain before feedback.

Proven Neodymium magnets, tight production tolerances and high-end workmanship ensure excellent sensitivity, superior sound quality and superb consistency.

Patented Integrated Shockmount
The V7 BFG's brand new, patented shockmount efficiently decouples the capsule from mechanical vibration, providing exceptionally low handling noise as compared to other mics in its class. This means you can feel free to move around on stage without fear of rumbles, pops, or anything other than your voice coming through.

Custom Chrome Finish
With this special plating for a unique look and feel, the V7 BFG's highly-polished chrome finish makes an immediate impression on stage or in the studio.

All-Metal Housing & Bevelled Spring Steel Grille
The V7 BFG's road-ready design is all metal - no plastic parts here. The chrome-plated chassis' high quality, highly durable zinc alloy is designed to hold up under on-stage stress for years, and the spring steel mesh grille is dent-proof and corrosion-free for perfect reliability. The highly-polished chrome finish makes an immediate impression on any stage.

The bevelled edge around the grille also prevents your mic from rolling around when you put it down on top of your amp or the stage floor.

Internal Windscreen
Efficiently reduces unwanted wind noise and plosive pops. In case you don't like the stylish red colour or it's not suitable for broadcasting applications, sE have included a spare black windscreen in the box.

Gold-plated XLR Connector
The V7 BFG's gold-plated XLR connector also ensures a loss-free and reliable signal connection for years to come.

All in all, the V7 BFG makes it easier than ever for your engineer to get an amazingly full, rich sound with minimal processing, so you always sound your very best.
