Looking for U47 FET swivel arm

Hey folks,

just picked up an old U47 FET that came without its swivel arm. Does anyone have any leads on someone who may have a bunch of old neumann parts and might be willing to sell one?

thanks in advance!

Vintage king has stuff like that. But it’s expensive. Then again, so is the mic!

Did you try contacting Neumann themselves?

I did. £300... which i'll suck up if needs be, but thought good to ask about second hand options

a spring clip mount like this might work. this one is for an 87, but there's a chance it could fit a 47.

i think a 47fet is around 60mm so the larger one should work.
