The World's Most Popular Live Vocal Mic!

First-call vocal mic! There's a reason Shure's SM58 is the preferred mic for live singers around the globe: it does the job perfectly! Want clarity, warmth, and reliability? The SM58 is your mic. Perfect for everyone from stage pros to home studio hobbyists, this industry-standard mic is also an unbeatable deal; it's so affordable, you can equip your mic locker or live rig with several. Shure didn't compromise when they designed the SM58, and neither should you. This mic gives you a perfectly tailored frequency curve for vocals, but it also works amazingly well on instruments. Handheld or on the mic stand, the SM58 is a must-have mic!

When we say the SM58 is reliable, we aren't kidding. Neither is Shure. In fact, the fine folks at Shure demonstrated just how dependable this mic is by dropping it from six stories high. It still worked! Then, they dropped it from seven stories up. The result? The SM58 came back for more. If it can take this kind of abuse, it's definitely tough enough for your setup! Call your Sales Engineer today and make the legendary SM58 an essential part of your mic collection.

Sweetwater Advice

Jeff Barnett
Years ago, I was driving a pickup truck over-loaded with gear down a Texas highway en route to a gig. We hit a bump, our mic case flew open, and two SM58's bounced onto the pavement going 65 MPH. Amazingly, not only did the mic's still work, but their sound wasn't affected one bit (the grille, on the other hand...). Almost every gigging musician has a story like this, and that's part of what makes the SM58 an enduring classic!

SM58 A solid 10!

I have bought this mic cause of all the greats that use this it. I listen to bands like Staind, Slipknot, Stone Sour, The Misfits (W/ and w/o Danzig), and tons of other metal and hard rock and grunge ... read more [+]bands. I love it's durability, sound, and more importantly the price. How can you NOT own a Shure SM58 or SM57 and call yourself a studio???
This mic is tailor made for metal growling vocalists and the pop-py princesses that we all love to hate.
And none of it would be possible without a SM58 a staple in my mic closet, in my arsenal, and in my sound. Pick one up and see why it is the undisputed king of live vocals. I DARE YOU to disagree that this mic DOESN'T pay for itself. close [-]

Our Customers Say...

I can talk to my Sales Engineer about any piece of equipment, and he always steers me in the right direction. He truly knows what he's talking about, and he never tries to over-sell me on anything. If he worked in the Nashville area, I'd probably owe him about 20 dinners by now!
