Ive been waiting for a deal, nothing much coming up on SM7b.
I had one & sold it and prices went up and now the used seem to be more than they are worth.
Is it crazy to spend $300 on a used mic, when a brand new , with all the foam and warranty and return box is only $99 more?
I was thinking a used SM7b would be $200-$250. Not the going $350 or sometimes $300 on CL.
Its used man? no warranty, used foam spittle pieces..ew.. often no original boxes and peace of mind.
maybe I'll just grab a SM58 and 57, as I recall they didnt sound much different, just have to watch the distance and all that crap. Ive always thought about building a metal mesh tube to attach to a SM58, screw it on and have the SM7"metal grill"....toss on a foam piece.
im getting old? SM7b are supposed to be $250 new, MIM Fenders are supposed to be $249 new...not $400+
