Rating: - One Half Of Shure's Long Lasting Dynamic Duo
Considering that the SM57 was introduced to the world in 1967, a year after the Shure SM58LC Shure SM58 Vocal Microphone, I guess the 58 gets Batman status, relegating the 57 to that of Robin. But that's not really a fair assessment considering the 57 and 58 were developed at the same time, and except for the 58's acoustic foam lined cage pop screen, the two mics are identical electrically.

Rating: - good price great mic
If you know the sure 57's then you know the timeless quality of this mic for snare and guitar cab micking. Good price

Rating: - Great for vocals or instruments!
People will try to tell you that the sm58 is a better vocal mic, it's not true. The sm58 is designed to enhance only the sounds that fall within a certain range (the vocal range as decided by shure).

Regardless, for a versatile mic that will last you as long as you need it to, buy ... Read More

Rating: - Best value in the industry. Great for more serious podcasters.
I am a podcaster, and purchased one of these used for $60. What a steal! I also spend over $300 on a good quality Shure KSM27, and I feel I should have just saved my money and stuck with the SM57.

If you're into podcasting, but want to step up to interviewing others with multiple mics, I highly suggest you buy a few of these, or the SM58 model, to add as additional mics to a small mixer board. They are just so versatile, and sound through so clear. If you want to add some more bass ... Read More

Rating: - good of course
What else is there to say other than legendary? It is sturdy, but does not get as good of a sound as I expected. Maybe, it was too hyped up by everyone. I often use it for vocals during practice. When it comes to recording, I found my MXL condenser sounds warmer and more full.
