MORE OPEN AND TRANSPARENT SOUND than ANY stock SM57. A treat for any guitarist.
For years I've been listening to my favorite records but have never been able to replicate exactly the best ones. I always felt stock Mexican-made 57's sounded as if someone put a blanket on my amp - and somehow cut off the transparency and natural sustain of the amp, making my left hand go stiff, especially when playing faster legato passages. Those passages sound perfect when I listen to the amp itself, but when mic'd - regardless of the numerous techniques I have tried - it's not the same. This has been a HUGE problem for me. No one talks about it - the folks from Shure won't admit anything about the inferior quality of the cheaper transformers they started putting in the Mexican-made 57s. Forums won't give you much info either. This microphone solves that problem. It is more open, ...

Forums won't give you much info either. This microphone solves that problem. It is more open, more transparent and has more high and low frequencies than a stock 57. Its output is also much hotter. I am super happy I finally found a great sounding 57. Problem solved. P.S. No one paid me to say this.

It's okay
It's almost like the wild west in regards to figuring out if you got an actual SM57 or a knock off. The one I got was made in Mexico and has all the tell tale signs it's real; cap turns as it should, inner cap's bronze color is visible, etc. However, the logos on the box are yellow and white, not just yellow. I've noticed nearly all knock offs have a similar design. Then I ran a quick vocal test to ensure the mic worked, and honestly I wasn't all that impressed. The response seemed virtually identical to the radio shack mic I've been using out of laziness. Granted my old mic is actually decent for what it is but I expected some degree of a noticable difference since an SM 57 should be leagues better. A rule of thumb is that knock offs run approx. 1/3 hotter than legit SM 57s. American made ... It's almost like the wild west in regards to figuring out if you got an actual SM57 or a knock off.

The one I got comes across more like a passive mic but I haven't actually tested it with a cab so this may actually be a good thing. Hopefully..

Great price on a great product
Sure SM 57s are Just great microphones for snare.Drums Tom-toms. Guitar orcabs. Even vocals they're just all around great mics And the ones I purchased. From eBay, we're very reasonably priced. I'm very happy with my purchase.

Best instrument Mic ever!
You can't beat these mics for quality, sound, and durability. I use them for my guitar cabinets in rehersal and on stage. Their built to last and are the go to Mic for many musicians.
