SL 75C : Extraordinary value for money

I bought this mic because I wanted a decent sounding one for recording heavy guitars at home. Having been owning the Behringer UMC202HD interface for some time (which I had very positive experience with, unlike Focusrite Solo) and after watching a number of comparisons with Shure SM57 I had quite high expectations regarding this mic and it has more than stood up to them.

Build quality:

Immediately after taking it out of the box I was shocked by the quality. The metal chassis feels great in the hand at it has quite a bit weight to it.

Sound:

I use it to mic my Blackstar HT5 mkII combo with a copy of Diezel VH4 pedal in the FX loop and after double tracking and adding some EQ I get really high quality sound out of this setup. I place the mic around the cap edge of the speaker and I get quite a balanced, articulate sound this way.

Overall, I think this mic is an absolute steal! Good luck finding a microphone that offers better bang for your buck than this one.
