Dear Listers,
Thought I would post this question to the Harp-l, seeing as this is the best source for answers to questions like this.

< I was hoping you might be able to help me with a little problem I'm having. Can't seem to find anyone in London who even has the slightest idea what I'm talking about.....
Reason I'm writing is that I've been gigging with a Shure Green Bullet for the first time this weekend and have been getting REALLY bad feedback on it. The guys I was playing with suggested that I spend some money and either buy a new mic, or get a pre-amp with an EQ so I could tune the frequencies out that are feeding back.
After the gigs, I tried out the mic on a load of other Amps and it still fed back, no matter how close I was standing.
Have you ever heard of this before? Do I need a new mic? If so, why, when they're pretty much the standard? If I need a pre-amp, can you recommend me one? Or is it just how I'm holding the thing?
