Hire Shure SM58 Vocal Microphone | The Legendary Live Vocal Mic

Description

Unleash the iconic, warm, and clear vocal tone that has defined live music for generations.

Product Description

For a vocal performance that demands reliability and a sound trusted by professionals worldwide, our Shure SM58 Vocal Microphone hire is the go-to choice. This is arguably the most famous and recognisable microphone in the world, and for good reason. Its rugged construction, exceptional durability, and classic vocal tone have made it an industry standard for live sound. The SM58’s tailored frequency response and brightened midrange ensure that vocals cut through the mix, while its pneumatic shock mount and built-in spherical filter minimise handling noise and plosives.

Whether you’re a seasoned touring musician or a public speaker at a small event, the SM58 delivers a consistently warm, clear, and punchy sound. It’s a true workhorse, ready for any stage.

The SM58 pairs perfectly with our range of professional mixers, such as the Midas M32 Live digital audio mixer. For setups requiring multiple wireless microphones, you can also hire our Shure Digital Wireless Capsules, which includes the classic SM58 capsule, to maintain the same great tone in a wireless format.

Key Features & Benefits:

  • Legendary Vocal Tone: A tailored frequency response provides a classic, clear, and warm sound that is ideal for live vocals.
  • Cardioid Polar Pattern: Effectively isolates the main sound source while minimising unwanted background noise, making it more resistant to feedback.
  • Exceptional Durability: The iconic spherical steel mesh grille and enamel-coated metal construction are designed to withstand the rigours of touring and frequent use.
  • Integrated Pneumatic Shock Mount: Reduces handling noise, ensuring a clean signal even with energetic performers.
  • Built-in Pop Filter: A highly effective spherical filter minimises wind and breath “pop” noise, protecting your sound.
  • Wide Application: While a standard for vocalists, its robust nature and clear sound make it useful for miking other sources like guitar amps and drums in a pinch.
