FEATURED MIC: THE BEESNEEZ BC12A TUBE
The Original AKG C12 is one of the best known and most recognisable microphones ever made. The brass CK12 capsule used in this microphone is loved for it’s beautiful highs and natural frequency response. These capsules are the most sophisticated to manufacture. AKG ceased manufacturing this capsule more than 30 years ago. We at BeesNeez have since become the largest manufacturer of CK12 capsules in the world. Our modern machine shop with state of the art and state of the Science machinery can reproduce this amazing capsule with unbeatable accuracy. This capsule is the heart of both the Tube and Fet/Cardioid versions of the the BC12A.
Our BC12A microphones capture a “best of both worlds” design. They not only capture the sonic beauty of the original long body C12, they also have the functionality of the C12A short (small body) design. Airy, open and ready for release capture that is not sibilant. No thuddy lows and muddy mids, just beauty.

“A wonderfully made microphone that fits the sound I’ve been trying to find for years . . . Honestly, for the money? I think this microphone destroys the competition!”
“The BM 49 sounds spectacular. My godfather Alan Silverman is a world renowned Grammy-nominated engineer. Mostly mastering, but experienced in all facets of producing and engineering. He has 4 vintage M49s. And 14 Neumann K47 capsules. We tested the BeesNeez against all 4. Plus swapped out 2 capsules. The BeesNeez sounded virtually indistinguishable from the vintage m49s. Fantastic job. We were both blown away at the quality of the microphone. I will be ordering a BM 269 before the year is over.”
“The BU87i C is by far the best microphone I’ve ever purchased. It’s all I could wish for!”
“Your BU67 sounds more than impressive! It has that ‘sounds like a record’ vibe, as soon as I heard myself on it.”
“Just got my Lulu’s the other week.. My jaw dropped when I put them in front of acoustic! Absolutely amazing! They also make great OH’s, piano mics, guitar amps… I even found myself putting one in front of my favourite female vocalist the other day! If you’re after a set of SDCs that both sound amazing and are gorgeous to look at, stop looking and just buy them. You won’t regret it.”
“I’d been searching for a microphone with the character of an M49 for a while and when I saw [BeesNeez] developed one in that sonic department, I took the plunge. Though my time with the microphone has been brief, I have absolutely ZERO regrets about the purchase and it has catapulted to the top of my favorite mics that I own (among which are some phenomenal mics) … [BeesNeez] is on my short-list on manufacturers when it comes to microphone purchases that provide the best quality for what feels like a more than fair price for what their products deliver.”
“I love my Phelicity. I have been using this as my main vocal microphone for the past 6 or 7 years I believe. Very little EQ needed. Cuts through the mix, beautiful lows, mids, and crisp high end. Would never sell my Phelicity.”
“This mic sounds fantastic! I am VO actor and now this is my microphone number 1. Immediately after recording is ready to mix. Rich, balanced sound with unusual warmth. I would absolutely recommend VO actors and singers.”
“This mic is a gem! It beat out most if not all of the mics that I have come across to date for vocals. It sounds like there is a tube in the thing. It is warm with a nice bottom and open top. It is high mid forward just enough to sit in the mix with minimal EQ. This one is a must for any BN fan, and probably any studio owner in general!”
