Offering an original unmolested vintage 1955 SHURE Dynamic Microphone with stand and cable. The condition of this mic is good with just the mildest signs of age, but no bent or broken ribs. Even the original delicate screen cloth is free of tears, holes or soiling. Testing produces strong output and clean full fidelity from it's factory dynamic element with no loose rattling internals.

This model has a selectable impedance switch, L, M, H, and works well on all 3 positions. The original silver & blue Shure badge is intact and clearly readable, the pivot joint holds the tilt angle firmly, and the threads are clear and undamaged. Includes the short 3 pin Amphenol connector cable with XLR plug, plus the Shure desk stand with your choice of CBS, ABC or MUTUAL badge. We can install a 1/4 male phono plug if you prefer at no charge.

Not only is this Shure model one of the best looking mics ever made, it also introduced a breakthrough technology in using just a single dynamic element and achieving pattern control. Shure developed the mic element in the 1930's, using small ports that allowed sound waves to reach both sides of a diaphragm at different times, resulting in a more linear frequency response. The design is called UNIDYNE (short for Unidirectional Dynamic), and its a basis of many designs today, including another icon, the SM58. The combination of great sound, compact size, cardioid pattern and classic styling made this mic an instant hit.

By the 1950's, it was so recognizable that a company advertisement simply featured a picture of the mic and copy reading Used the World Over More Than Any Other Microphone and The Microphone That Needs No Name.
