Contemporary Version Of The '87-Style All-Time Studio Vocal Mic
The WA-87jr is a contemporary version of the iconic '87-style microphone, the most sought after mic for studio vocals, with a modern circuit design and professional recording features. Combining a transformerless modern circuit with a premium recreation of the vintage dual-backplate K87 capsule, WA-87jr delivers pristine highs, detailed mids, and rich analog tone with low self-noise. Three selectable polar patterns: cardioid, figure-8, and omnidirectional, provide needed flexibility for recording vocals, podcasts/streaming, and all types of instruments. The WA-87jr delivers one of the most legendary analog microphone sound profiles with professional recording features at an unthinkable price.

Classic Studio Sound, Contemporary Design
The WA-87jr is a contemporary version of the iconic '87-style microphone, delivering pristine highs and detailed mids with a modern multi-pattern condenser design. Combining possibly the greatest vocal condenser capsule tone of all time with carefully designed contemporary circuitry, the WA-87jr delivers professional analog tone on sources like vocals, streaming/podcasting, acoustic guitar, drums, and much more.

Vintage-Accurate K87-Style Capsule
The WA-87jr features a true reproduction of the celebrated dual-backplate, large-diaphragm K87-style capsule found in the most sought-after '87 microphones. Designed with the same hole pattern and frequency response as the original studio mic using a discrete signal path with ultra-low self-noise, WA-87jr delivers pristine, professional tone perfect for vocals, streaming/VO, instruments, and more.

Selectable Polar Patterns, Pad & Filter
The WA-87jr features three selectable polar patterns: cardioid, omnidirectional, and figure-8. Multiple patterns allow for precise control over the focus of the mic, from intimate "close" tones to capturing the natural ambiance of a room. The built-in pad and high-pass filter increase flexibility by making it easy to capture loud sources and reducing unwanted low-frequency noise. Together, these features make the WA-87jr a highly versatile microphone suited for a wide range of recording situations.

Professional Accessories
All WA-87jr's include a professional shockmount to reduce noise while recording, hardmount for minimalist mounting, and leather storage case for travel and storage.

Hand-Tested In Austin, TX
Like all Warm Audio gear, every single WA-87jr is meticulously hand-tested and inspected by trained technicians with a passion for making music in Austin, TX USA.

Performance Warranty Banner

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty

A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.

Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.

How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
  • Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
  • Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
  • No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
  • Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
  • Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
  • Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
  • Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
  • Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
  • Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
 

Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.

Purchasing additional years of coverage

Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.

If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:

  • NEW products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
  • USED products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
  • GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
  • BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
