Shure SM57

Shure SM57 hire in Melbourne. The instrument mic on more snares, guitar amps and stages than any other and the one that'll survive anything you throw at it.

Instrument mic hire starts with the SM57 because it does almost everything well. It's a cardioid dynamic with a tight pickup that isolates the snare from the hi hat, the guitar amp from the drummer and a contoured response that makes guitars and snares sit in the mix with very little EQ. The internal shock mount keeps stand thumps out, and the build is the stuff of legend. Drop it, step on it, get hit by a drumstick. It keeps going.

It's in the mic case of our Band PA Sound System Package for guitar and snare and it's the mic engineers ask for by name on a stage plot. Use it on brass, woodwind, percussion and toms too, or on a lectern when you want a speech mic that ignores the room.

Good for: snare, guitar amps, toms, percussion, brass, woodwind, lectern speech, live band setups and studio recording.

Good to know: Comes with a mic clip and pouch. Cable, stand and mixer are separate unless they are already in your booking. Need the vocal version? Get the Shure SM58. Need a full drum kit miked? Check out the Band Mic Kit.
