Years ago I bought a Shaker Mad-Cat harmonica mic, which has served me very well playing with my uke group. I play blues for a couple songs in our constantly changing set lists and always hold the harmonica in my hands, never in a rack. The Mad-Cat is very compact and one of the things that makes it useful is a volume control, but it has a long 1/4" cable permanently attached, to which I will add an extension to get to an amp or a mixer as is necessary.
Over the last few years I've gone almost completely wireless with various pod type rigs for my instruments, mics, mixer, and also power banks for my amps. Only the harmonica has a cable. Yesterday I was surfing the net and came across another of Shaker's mics, the Dynamic XLR. As soon as I saw it, I knew it would work for me with my wireless mic pod, which are XLR. I'm going to attach a Velcro loop to make it easier to hold. The rig is only 6.5" long. As soon as it arrives, I'll followup on this post. Here is a mockup of the Dynamic XLR and a photo of the Mad-Cat.
