Hey those are some great looking mics!! What I used for a shell is the end caps for metal mesh fence posts with an ABS insert that is threaded that accepts sink tail piece slip nut. My computer crashed and I lost all my pictures!!
What is the name of that molding compound?
found this on google:
But here’s a shocker: for amplified, bluesy ballsy tone, better is worse.Too much high
frequency response can sound harsh, even hurt people’s ears. The reason vintage bullets are so
popular is that their frequency response typically falls off at as low as 3000 Hz – even though
some humans can hear as high as 20,000 Hz.

so maybe the second one you've listed.
Also (don't quote me - maybe randy can also comment) that element is probably low impedance meaning if you want to plug into a guitar amp instead of a PA system you'd need an impedance matching transformer.

one of those would work internally
You have a pic of the Shure R-198 element that can be easily wired Hi Z or Lo Z.
I'm putting mine in a tomato paste can with a screen sound hole cover.

A buying option for the mic: R198 on Amazon.com
I live in estonia. Buying form ebay is more expensive than buying in store.
Well I think the first mic element you posted will work, just remember it'll be mic level, not instrument level
Maybe I can use some sort of transformer ?
I find that I can buy Impedants-trafo 10 Kohms / 1 Kohms
I think I need Impedance transformer what makes Impedance right for guitar amp.
I looked on google for in-line impedance transformers and it seems low to high is:
low-impedance input of 200 to 250 ohms to a high-impedance output of 50,000 ohms
But yes, you would need a transformer to go from low to high.
If U get the Dynamic Mic element, then use a 10Kohm Audio Pot for Volume, U should be fine,I would use the Bigger Element for it,smaller ones rattle too much.
