Shure SM58 Microphone

Description

The Microphone to Beat
You’ve heard the Shure SM58 a thousand times before. Tuned to deliver the warmth of your voice and project it over the crowds. It’s ideal for lead singers, back-up singers, and public speakers. With this essentials bundle you can get on stage quicker.

Since going on sale in 1966, the SM58 has become the industry standard. Designed from the very beginning for life on the road. It became famous for its toughness and steel mesh filter that reduces wind and ‘pop’ noises – it picks up your voice and nothing else.

Iconic Vocal Sound
The SM58 has a signature sound that was created for live music. Shure achieved it by boosting the mid-range. This little trick means it doesn’t matter who uses it, their voice will cut through the mix.

The sound profile was also designed with a cardioid polar pattern and ‘bass roll-off’. This feature allows for the ‘proximity effect’ (increasing bass by moving closer to the mic) letting singers make changes to their vocal tone on the fly.

The clear sound is never interrupted either. The SM58 stops noise from vibrations and handling of the microphone, thanks to a built-in shock mount that protects the clarity of your voice.

Built to Last
You can expect the SM58 to withstand the wear and tear of touring. Shure went to great lengths to make sure the SM58 would still work, even after serious damage. Built from an all-metal construction, using heat and water-resistant adhesives, the microphone cartridge is protected to deliver years of great performance.

You can be confident of its durability – Shure tried freezing it, cooking it, and submerging it. They even dropped it from a 7-storey building and it still worked! Once you know that, you understand why it’s the microphone The Rolling Stones go on tour with.

We’re all about helping people make music. By choosing this bundle you get a microphone stand and clip, so your SM58 is right where you need it, when you need it. Along with an XLR cable to get you hooked up to your setup, you’ll be live in no time.
