After over 30 years of use, the Shure SM58 is arguably the most significant microphone in history. The Shure SM58 dynamic vocal microphone is designed for professional vocal use in live performance, sound reinforcement, and studio recording. Old advertisements used to feature the SM58 being used as a hammer - it's that tough. It has a tailored vocal response for a sound which is a world standard for singing or speech. A highly effective, built-in spherical filter minimizes wind and breath "pop" noise. A cardioid pickup pattern isolates the main sound source while minimizing unwanted background noise. Rugged construction, a proven shock-mount system, and a steel mesh grille ensure that even with rough handling, the SM58 will perform consistently, outdoors or indoors. It's not uncommon to find SM58 microphones still in use that are over 30 years old.
