Suzuki Microphone Cable Appraisal

Suzuki SMD-138 Microphone Cable

This is a specialized audio connection cable designed for use with a Suzuki SMD-138 dynamic microphone, typically used for harmonica or vocal performance. The cable features an unbalanced configuration with a female 3-pin XLR connector on one end and a standard 1/4-inch (6.35mm) TS mono phone plug on the transmitter end. The XLR connector is finished in a matte metallic silver-grey with a locking mechanism for secure attachment to the microphone body. The 1/4-inch jack features a molded black plastic housing with a distinctive red textured grip or slide-switch indicator, which is a common design trait of older Suzuki harmonica microphone accessories. The cable itself is a flexible, black PVC-jacketed wire of significant length, appearing to be approximately 10 to 15 feet long. The condition appears used but well-maintained; the metal contacts lack significant oxidation, and the cable jacket is free from visible cracks or major abrasions. The craftsmanship reflects consumer-grade electronics from the late 20th to early 21st century, prioritized for utility and standard stage use. While no specific maker's mark is visible on the cable jacket in this view, the specialized connectors align it specifically with the Suzuki SMD series audio equipment.
