Peavey PVM835

Post by GeorgeR » Tue Jul 14, 2015 10:55 pm

I have a Peavey PVM835 Handheld Dynamic Cardioid Diamond Microphone. It has worked well through the years, although I hardly use it. The past couple of years, the finish on the handle seems to be simply getting sticky. Like someone has put tree sap on it. Seriously. I think it was suppose to be a rubber type coating originally. Now it's just sticky goo... I like the microphone, but can't hold it or use it now. What's causing this, and any remedy?

I have recently purchased a new-old-stock version and the same thing is happening. I have not examined this or explored a remedy yet.

One of the my older Peavey wireless has the same issue. I finally ended up using lacquer thinner to remove all the rubbery goo. Not sure what causes it and it's only happened on that one mic.

Don't believe me. I'm just guessing.
