The mic is very precise with the sound, you may have to cut out some of the lower end frequencies with it, depending on how close you are to the mic and how deep your voice is. That was the only issue that I had when using this mic. I didn?

I bought my SM 58 in 1980 at a music store in Dayton, Ohio. As I recall, I paid about $100. I've been using it for about 40% of my live performances ever since. I do from 50 - 100 shows a year and many of the shows are outside. This mic has outlasted several PAs,keyboards and amps!

If you asked a bunch of kids to draw a microphone chances are it would look like a Shure SM58 and that's because it probably is the most used and seen microphone in the world.

Amazon Verified Purchase ( What's this? ) Really there isn't anything to say here. This is an SM-58. If you are in the industry you know what this is. If you aren't, then read on. If you need a bulletproof mic that will never break, this is it. It's a dynamic cardioid mic.

Great for live work and recording guide vocals in a studio environment.

Great quality; robust; good price; a must have for live work

None that spring to mind
