Vintage 1970's Shure Brothers 565SD Dynamic cardioid microphone w accessories #8

  

Hello and welcome to The House of Chrome. You are looking at a classic 1970's era Shure Brothers 565 SD (Unisphere 1) dynamic cardioid microphone complete with a vintage Shure A-25 mic clip, new exterior pop filter and black vinyl Shure mic pouch. This 565SD model was introduced in the 1960's and was made for several decades. This is the older American made 1970's / 80's model not the newer 1990's Mexican made 565SD. This was a widely used model with many famous musicians at that time period and set at low impedance having a beautiful smooth warm tone.

One of the finest dynamic cardioid ever made really. Pic # 2 is an old 1970's Shure advertisement showing this earlier version and it's characteristics. It works like new and sounds incredible.

Basically an SM-58 before the SM-58. It does have more of a mid range sound however with a bit of bass as the modern SM-58 is very heavy on the bass. This 565SD has been cleaned and tested... Sounds just like the day it was first manufactured.

The signal strength on this old mic is very strong. This mic is an excellent choice for both broadcasting and singing purposes. A very high quality Shure product with excellent uni-directional pattern blocking out most background noise. As you can see in the pictures provided the cosmetic wear on the handle shows no wear and there is just very lite wear on the black plastic cartridge.

It has a beautiful luster on the satin chrome finish. The Shure label that encircles the lower globe shows no wear and completely legible. The chrome globe shows zero dents or tarnish and no odors. It has a nice new interior foam liner / pop filter under the globe to help with unwanted feedback from wind or strong breathing.

The 565SD is a real work horse. This mic takes a standard XLR cable which is not included but easy and cheap enough to get ahold of. A newer black vinyl mic pouch is included as well that's in excellent condition. The zipper works perfectly and it's a great place to store the mic when not in actual use. It will help keep the scratches and corrosion away. The mic also comes with an original Shure A-25 model mic clip that works perfect for this mic and it fits firmly. The mic clip will screw onto any desk or floor stand. Provides a wide degree of tilt up and down. The clip looks pretty good too.

This mic is an easy 8 + on a scale of 1 - 10. Hook this one up and you are ready for any live event. MICROPHONE STAND SHOWN IS NOT PART OF THIS SALE...
