Decent Backup Live Microphone?

[jack1953]

I just got the Shure SM58 for my main live gigging microphone, after much research and deliberation. Besides the SM48, what would be a decent backup microphone?

One that is dependable enough to get through gigs if needed, but also not too pricey since it will be sitting idle most of the time.

Thanks in advance,
Jack

You might want to look at a sm58 clone, the ES-58 from GLS Audio

About $US30 each or $US85 for a 3-pack. In spite of the price, the mics are pretty good.

Hate to point out the obvious, but what about another sm58?

You will never need a backup microphone if you have a 58.

+1 as cheap as they can be found used ($50-$60) If I needed a back up, i'd get the same mic.
