The Resurrection of the Abused SM7

I was given this badly abused SM7 microphone... well, it was "take it or throw it out" scenario. So, I took it home, and sought to see if it could be repaired. Man, was this poor microphone abused...

Since this video, this mic has been given the name "GQ the SM7" as all of the patina, and blue replacement cable really make this a beautiful piece of art. Even better, this mic works pretty good, and has already been used in several recordings and twitch videos.
