What is Demo Gear?

At Sweetwater, we're so picky that what we call a "demo" is actually better than what most music retailers sell as "new" gear! Our gear hasn't endured hundreds of people a week plunking away at all the keyboards, fumbling through Stairway to Heaven on every guitar or playing with every fader and knob on a mixer or control surface.

What demo means to us is that we've had it out of the box, or maybe it was in a customer's hands for a few days and isn't "factory fresh" as a result. Every demo item we sell has Sweetwater's 2-year Total Confidence Coverage™ warranty, and has been tested and verified up to "new" specs by our factory-authorized technicians to make sure it's in perfect working order before we ship it to you.

When you buy a Demo item at Sweetwater, you get:
  • 2-year Total Confidence Coverage Warranty™!
  • Products inspected and tested by our factory-authorized techs, guaranteed to function like new (or better)!
  • FREE shipping on most items
  • Equipment that will MEET or EXCEED your expectations!

Rated 4/5

DPA d: facto 4018V

This was purchased to replace the Telefunken m-80 capsule on my Shure wireless microphone. I switched to the Neumann KSM 105's for my wired direct mics but Neumann doesn't make a capsule for Shure so I had to purchase the DPA to bring my wireless up to the same level of quality. Thing is great, just as great as the Neumann but $ dollars more. That's why I only gave 4 stars.
Music background: Playing in local bands since 1994. Also praise and worship. Guitar, bass and vocals
