Shure SM58 Mic – Anything else just sucks

I’ve had cheap mic’s. I’ve had offbrand mic’s. I’ve had mic’s that came free with a microphone stand. I’ve even had mic’s that cost $50-$100. But I’m here to say that the legend is true, there is nothing in the world like a Shure SM58. It is literally indestructable. And if you do manage to kill it, it’s very easy to just head to the store and get a replacement ball or whatever you need. This is something that I can truly and honestly state as well, for me the SM 58 is much clearer, cleaner, and easier to sing through. It’s a professional microphone at an affordable price. If you sing on stage, even if only background vocals – don’t get a cheap piece of crap, spend the money one time and get an SM-58. The Shure mic will last you a decade easy.

Legendary for its uncanny ability to withstand abuse that would destroy any other microphone, the SM58 has not only helped to define the sound of rock vocals on stage, it’s also been used as a hammer to build stages and gone on to perform flawlessly later at the gig. Using a club’s house system? You’ll be singing through an SM58. And in the studio? Guess what mic Bruce Swedien used to fatten up Michael Jackson’s vocals on the Thriller album .

The Shure SM58 Mic is world-renowned for its distinctive upper-midrange presence peak that ensures an intelligible, lively sound. Perfectly fits the hand, balanced for total comfort during long gigs. Frequency response is a smooth, vocal-tailored 50Hz-15kHz, and the price is a bargain considering its life expectancy.
