The AKG C1000S boasts a great frequency response and as such has become a popular all-round "workhorse" for sound engineers the world over. Its rugged construction & battery or phantom power operation make this a highly versatile mic and the adaptable cardoid or hyper cardoid response patterns means that the AKG C1000S is equally useful on stage or in the studio.
The versatility of the C 1000 S makes this an extremely popular model, and one ideally suited for all kinds of recording and live sound applications.
If no phantom power is available, the mic can be powered by a standard 9 V battery, making it perfect for mobile use. With its new battery monitoring electronics, the C 1000 S now features a reliable LED warning light. The red LED above the the microphone switch lights up when the remaining battery life falls below 45 minutes. The polar pattern can quickly be switched from cardioid to hypercardioid simply by attaching the PPC 1000 Polar Pattern Converter provided to the microphone capsule. The PB 1000 Presence Boost Adapter also supplied with the C 1000 S adds 3 to 5 dB of high-end enhancement between 5 and 9 kHz, improving clarity of speech and adding definition to instrument sounds.

Solutions:
Hi, the AKG C1000s doesn't come with a lead since it can be used with either an XLR to Jack or an XLR to XLR lead depending on what you're going to plug it into.
It can be used to record drums in an ambient way and will produce good results for its price.
Its a good all round mic that lends itself to voice and instrument recording. It shouldn't be used for recording a guitar amp.
