Xmas Gift Guide: Ultra-specialist music jewellery

Read Full Article

I've seen music jewellery before. Silver guitar picks, little stratocasters, perhaps a pair of saxophone earrings. But Tell Me Where On Earth has gone about a zillion steps further. They have tiny silver models of eleven different types of microphone. A Shure SM58, I can understand. Every wannabe rapper might want one, so they do it in five different finishes. But also a Shure Beta 58, which looks very, very subtly different. They even have one of those Sony C-800 valve mics that Dre uses. They have teeny-tiny VU meters, Mesa Boogie amps, a DX7, even a Roland D50. And in the picture above left? It's a kick-drum microphone. Why? Why? Why?
