The SM57 is the swiss army knife of recording. It can handle just about anything you throw at it, from vocals, to guitar cabinet, to just about any drum. If you're only going to have one mic in your collection, the sm57 is not a bad one to have. In fact most studios have between 5-10 of them.

I was timing just how long it would take for someone to come up with that one. It was less than an hour.

I connect my 57 via xlr to 1/4" plug it in to my power amp and use it as a mono monitor speaker. Or sometimes as a guitar speaker(when Im trying to be really quiet).

Yeah, it's a great one. If you can't quite reach the TV remote, use it as an extended finger to press the buttons to turn it on or flip through the channels. You can also place it on the opening of your bag of chips as a weight to squeeze it shut to keep them fresh. Or you could slip it down the front of your pants to impress your neighborlady when you go out to get your mail. Or...

It'll be fine, make some recordings and evaluate. It's a mic, it'll capture whatever you put down.
