Description
If the SM58 is the vocal standard, the SM57 is its instrument twin. Put it on a snare, a guitar cab or a horn section and it just works, show after show.
It’s a cardioid dynamic with a 40Hz to 15kHz response tailored for drums, guitars and vocals. The cardioid pattern isolates the source and cuts spill from the rest of the stage, and a pneumatic shock mount keeps handling noise down. It weighs 284g.
A few of these cover most of a band’s backline. Tell us the line-up and we’ll put together mics, stands and clips to match.
