The I2HH10XLR-VKIT, a mic kit that's part of the I2 series from Countryman, features their I2 High-Gain instrument mic that includes a Hardwired XLR connector and provides a Hypercardioid polar pickup pattern.

I2 Series Instrument Microphone

Engineered from the ground up for smooth frequency response, low noise, and precise polar pattern with deep nulls and natural on- and off-axis response, the tiny size of this model makes it ideal for distance miking that is invisible on-camera. In addition, flexible close-miking techniques are aided by Countryman's instrument Mounts, which allows it to sit securely upon the instrument.
