This is a fantastic mic

Absolutely love this mic, excellent quality

THE live mic standard for a reason.

I've seen people use cheap SM58 look-a-like mics on stage and they have no end of problems with feedback because the cheap mics just don't have the frequency response of a real SM58 they have to up the mid and highs at the desk thus causing their mics to squeal like little piggies.

You don't get that problem with an SM58. Not only are they built like tanks and will survive your lead singer throwing one on the floor in their typical diva-esque rages over and over again, but they just sound great. Full stop.

I've never had a problem EQing an SM58. Not once. Plenty of problem EQing cheap look-a-likes though, so don't waste your money. Buy a proper road-tested SM58. You won't regret it.

You know what your getting

We bought this for the lead singer in our band back in 2010. It's used 3-4 nights a week since then and has given no trouble at all. It really suits his voice and is bullet proof. The casing is solid and the grill will take a beating.

I've tried it myself, (I have a deep voice) and while it does the job ok for me I prefer to use an EV N/D767a.

Then again my EV doesn't suit the lead singer at all.

With the sm58 you know what your getting, a good sounding reliable mic and that's why you find them on festival stages, theatres and clubs. It's a great all rounder.

A industry standard microphone for a good price

You can't go wrong with a SM58, you just can't!

It's used on stages over the world and is know for it's durability.

The sound is quite decent, not something I'd use in a studio (exept on harsh vocals perhaps), but live and on rehearsal you just can't go wrong!

It's a pleasure...

I just wanna say that this is my best friend on stage!

I'm a singer in a Hard Rock Band and after trying different microphones, I decided in favor of the SM 58. Not any other tool can offer so many well balanced qualities that are necessary on stage. Even if you need to boost a snare drum or a guitar box (well I know, this isn't the ideal situation...).

At the moment, I've got six SM58 from different ages. One of them is now nearly 30 Years old!!! And it works, and works, and works...

Even when it fell down and if I sweat all over and kiss it too much... (all singers will know what I mean :-P)

Excellent and robust live mic

I am very satisfied with this classic mic from Shure. The sound quality is excellent, it has a rugged design, suitable for live performance. The super cardiod diagram really helps suppressing feedback. It does not require phantom voltage and it has no switch or other gadgets which could complicate work of the sound engineer. For live vocal performance, this is definitely a very good choice.

The best in the industry!

I wish this came wireless! SM58s are the industry standard of wired microphones. They pretty much are indestructable - totally worth the price!!

What's not to love?

Rock solid classic design and reassuring quality. Buy one, look after it- and never worry about a replacement.

Solid mic

I'm a solo musician playing acoustic guitar though small PA's. I gig with this mic live 8-12 hours per week.

Robust and handles my range, which is a little in the mid-range. Would highly recommend.

Its a Shure, so wont let you down!

Super!

I was planning to buy the Beta 58 but at the end I have decided to go for SM58 for the reason that I will get experience first and get it next time. The time that I have tried it, I never expect that it is very good microphone and I am not sure if I am still going to upgrade soon but maybe. It is really a heavy duty microphone and well made. I would recommend it for newbies that starting to sing!

Industry standard

After very heavy studio and live use and the mic still works perfectly without a scratch. There's a good reason why this is an industry standard mic... you can't go wrong with a 58!

Industry Standard for a Reason!

Brought these for use out in the field for live sound and they are fantastic. Yes, ok, they aren't the best sounding microphone but it is twenty years old! Still I didn't have one complaint about the sound from either the audience or the performers. They are extremely robust as well. A mic stand got knocked over with one on top yet it still works perfectly and merely has a small dent in the grill that was easily knocked out. Would recommended to anyone in need of a rugged microphone for use out gigging

Shurely the best for the price!

A total work horse. The SM58 LC can take a beating and still produce a clear sound. Perfect for vocals, on the road or in the studio. A must have in a musician/engineer's arsenal. Shure never seems to disappoint and in its price range is hard to beat!

Super reliable, tough, industry standard vocal microphone. Can also be used to mic instrument cabs, and inexpensive for the service and quality it presents.

THE microphone for when conditions aren't ideal

I had a condenser mic before, but couldn't place it near my mouth due to it being too loud and clipping my audio interface. This mic is inexpensive, sounds great, sturdy and is devoid of all the flaws my condenser had when used in less than ideal conditions. As any dynamic mic, top end is much more dull than on any condenser, so you better have a good EQ to compensate that. Was my goto mic until i got a LDC.
