• Sounds great with a full response
  • New foam inside grille to avoid crumbling foam that will diminish the frequency response and sound quality
  • Cosmetically there is some wear as shown but nothing that impacts performance

For sale is a vintage SM57, which features an older Unidyne III capsule from Shure, which many consider to sound superior to modern-day 57s.

Older SM57s often have foam inside the grille that crumbles over time, degrading audio quality. However, in this instance, the foam has been carefully removed and replaced, ensuring the capsule remains clean, and the microphone delivers optimal performance. Avoid others who have not replaced the foam, as it may crumble all over the capsule, leading to reduced frequency response. Also please note, this microphone has been carefully cleaned as well.

Great pickup for anyone looking to buy a good working vintage SM57!
