UNPACKING AND INSPECTION
Carefully unpack your MA-50 microphone and verify that all of the components included with
the microphone are accounted for. Do not discard any packing materials! If anything is missing
or damaged, contact your dealer or Mojave Audio immediately.
Items included with the MA-50 are:

the bottom ring and slide the body off. When corresponding with Mojave Audio about your
microphone or when service is required, we will need to know the serial number, so keep it
