What are the noticable differences, i'm new to this, saw they were both the same brand, and numbering scheme, but have different lettering. PG vs SM let me know please. thanks guys!
Most definitely get the sm57. I hate to be the bearer of bad news but the sm57 is about as budget as you can get. If you want to get good results your going to have to spend a little more than $70 for a microphone. Also always try to find the best deals you can get. eBay is great sometimes. Check www.froogle.com. A lot of times web sites will do price matching. If you send them a link to the lowest price you can find, you can usually get $10-20 less than the lowest price. Good luck, your at the start of a very long, but rewarding journey.Giant_Kyle said:so bite the bullet and get the SMs?
All I have to say is if you're ever going to record rock n' roll, you're going to want at least 1 SM 57. 100% gauranteed. I have 4 of 'em.Giant_Kyle said:What are the noticable differences, i'm new to this, saw they were both the same brand, and numbering scheme, but have different lettering.

Cool, where? Can you try it out. There's a few reputable octava dealers on the internet (soundroom comes to mind), but otherwise try them out first or make sure they have a good return policy on mics.Giant_Kyle said:looking into the Oktava MK319. found one for 90 used. they're only 100 new lol
