Beta 58 A : Re Shure Beta 58A

I play in a covers band doing rock, funk, punk anthems. We use a full pa with monitoring for every gig and there are 4 vocals. We are loud on stage and we always struggled to

get the vocals loud enough without feedback even with an engineer / monitor graphic etc. We have used standard SM58's for years. The lead vocalists mic failed recently and he asked for an SM58A Beta instead. It was about an extra £30 so I went along with it. The difference was amazing and we immediately replaced all the vocal mics with the 58A's and all our vocal monitoring problems are over. The mics sound great and do not pick up the monitor sound because of the super cardiod sensitivity map. I thoroughly recommend these mics to all - but beware of counterfit ones that you can find on line. They look the same but they sound terrible and the handling noise is awful. Cheers Rich Meen
