    Comments about Countryman B3 Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone (Black):

    One of the best sounding lavalier mics out there. Very durable, easy to hide, and very versatile. With just one mic you can hide it in the hair or a wig, tape it to the cheek like a head set, or use it like a regular lav clipped to a shirt. I love this mic!
