I bought it in early 2000 from a pro music store in Sydney for a short home recording project over a fortnight, used less than a handful of times, stored in its box the rest of the times and the microphone is in excellent condition with minimum signs of use. The box's condition is consistent with age. The mic is recently tested and is in perfect working condition, never been abused, sound quality is excellent.. Includes original mic clip, box and paper work and pouch.
One of the most outstanding things about the Shure SM58 is that you can stick one in front of any kind of vocalist (and most instruments, for that matter) and get excellent results. It's a fact - even though it's best known today for its near indestructibility, no one would have cared about the SM58 in the first place if it didn't sound amazing. The secret to the SM58's sound is its critically tuned frequency response, which cuts out low-end rumble and adds a noticeable rise in the upper-mid frequencies. This deliberate presence peak adds warmth and clarity to your vocals, but it also lets you get the most out of a wide range of sources, including guitar cabinets, brass, and many other instruments.
