I bought my SM-57 through Musicians Friend for around $80 because I had experience using them from undergrad work in telecommunications. On the first day, the teacher came in said "This is an SM-57." He held up the mic and then THREW it against the concrete floor. He then plugged it in and it worked flawlessly. You can literally pound in nails with this mic. And on top of everything else, they have superb response qualities. For anyone going on the road or recording at home, I give my full and whole-hearted recommendation to the Shure SM-57.

Built like a tank. Great frequency response. Resonable price tag.

Nothing.

Bulletproof.

If you need a mic for vocals or guitar or just about darn near anything else, buy this microphone.
