These stylish but small plastic bodied dynamic microphones were made in large quantities for home tape recording. They have a metal grill, fixed cable and an integrated fold-down loop of metal that acts as a desk stand. The construction is very elegant and well thought out - the two halves of the microphone body are held together with a single screw.
These were often sold with reel-to-reel tape recorders from other manufacturers. It is common to see different logos on EL3750 mics to match the tape recorder's branding. They generally sound good and can still be found for sale at sensible prices.
