Kit was complete with excellent instructions. I did email support on one capicitor question and their reply was helpful and nearly instantaneous.
This is my second build. The first was the T67. The S3-87 is very clear and very quiet microphone. The eq curve fits my locker sing the 470pF filter capacitor. Tje fact I can change it without soldering is a bonus.
I will be looking at building a S47 or T47 next.
