repairing 50's green bullet mic?

[tacobender]

Sorry I know this is for stompboxes and whatnot. But my harp player left his 50's shure green bullet mic behind to see if I could repair it. I was hoping someone could give me some insight on how to go about this. The mic element is good but one ove the 2 leads has been broken off. The ground is still connected to the case screw. So I'm wondering if I can just solder a new connection to the opposite terminal and wire that to a standard guitar cable? And the mesh ground also to the ground screw? Any advice would be appreciated, thanks Mike.

Maybe fig 2 from this data sheet would help?

Get clip leads. Try it. You can't hurt it by hollering in the mike connected to a geetar amp.

Especially if this is the dual-impedance (3-terminal) capsule. I don't understand the sheet Russ linked, but there aren't that many possible bad connections.

Open on the bench, it *will* humm/buzz. Get decent sound over the crap, then try to sort out the grounding as you put the case back together.

Thanks for the advice guys. I think the diagram that cozybuilder posted is for later green bullet models as this one only has two terminals from the element. I think I'll give it a shot with your idea PRR, I figure two terminals can't be to hard to figure out... but then I've never worked on a Mic before. Anyway I'm gona see if my Singer/harmonica player can find the lost pieces that he accidentally ripped out in a drunken stupor, and see if I can make those missing connections. Still can't believe there isn't a decent diagram online for a 50's green bullet. Anyway thanks for your help guys, I'll post again if it works out!
