Not with this Maono mic. Its length is aprx 7. This has made it so much easier performing drive-bys Without worrying about if my mom is going to call me and I have to answer the phone. All levels of vocals are clear and sharp. I have always liked JBL but then JBL Flip is too mainstream and I wanted something classy and something that would stand out. All the parts were there - it went together like expected. Happy to have this cd again. The bottom of the adjustable shelves were only painted once. So while the model I purchased (this one) is about the same price as the ones I purchased seven months ago, those had the height extension bars, a second hanging bar that you can use or not and wheel guards to keep fabric from getting caught in the wheel when you move the rack. Very nice shoe, but was still smaller across the width even when a larger size was ordered.
