Has the Shure logo got the registered trademark symbol on yours as well as no cross through the Z on LO Z?

I have photos at the dropbox link that show the capsule and wiring. If this is a fake it is an excellent fake as the capsule is metal not plastic.

neither am i

Brilliant. I'll be interested in what Shure say about the additional photos.

Certainly does. I'm in two minds again now. The fonts on the grille sticker are the only thing that aren't right.

Ah, yes OK. I just added some more photos of the capsule with the grille still on. I don't want to remove the grille because the only way I know how is to remove the sticker. My scales only go to 200grams and it weighs more than that. I also do not have an Ohm metre or I would have already...

Also, I messaged the seller 24 hours ago asking if it was possible that his supplier is duping him. No reply so far which I think says a lot in itself. I just want my money back to buy a genuine 57. Not too much to ask I don't think. :)

Firstly, there are plenty of authorised Shure dealers selling on ebay at a decent price. Secondly, I paid regular price so the 'too good to be true' argument doesn't necessarily hold any more. Thirdly, it certainly IS the buyer's fault if they purchase a fake. A week before my purchase I took...

It's actually a pretty good mike. I reckon it might be one of these rebranded. iSK DM-57 Dynamic Instrument Microphone | Swamp I have tested it a few times up against other Shure mike of about the same standard and it holds up. We'll see when the rest of the photos are viewed by Shure people...

Here's the reply from Shure. I didn't send them the mic I sent pictures of course, the same ones I posted here. "We generally do not make assessments based on photos alone and prefer to conduct a physical inspection of the product, both of the exterior and interior. However, based on a review...

the wires are the correct colour there's a transformer, it even sounds genuine (to my ear) up against an SM58 without grill and a Beta 58A it is just the Fonts and the shoddy bottom anyway i have sent it to shure

The font around the grille appears different to what I have seen before. Also the registered trade make symbol is written after the Shure logo which I have also never seen before. The "LO Z" looks different to what I have seen. It's usually bolder. The word "dynamic" looks smaller than usual.

ta for the replies, i might still try, as a hobby

possibly a really stupid question, but can you build your own tube pre at a reasonable cost? maybe answering my own question, but i spose if it was everyone would do it... yeah?

mmm, i also have a gibson j45, now that is boomy as hell... impossible for me to find a good mike spot... i like the seagull better, & at a quarter of the price!

thanx for the kind replies, i really appreciate it... i don't have pro monitors & was wondering about the boominess in 2 & 3... head phones seem to have *natural* extra bass 1 is from above the neck at 12th fret pointed towards sound hole at 45 degrees 2 & 3 are both over the shoulder, one...

Hi, I am pretty new to trying to make decent recordings. My set up is very rudimentary, & this acoustic was recorded with just an SM57 into a Tascam 122L. I tried 3 positions but, whilst my ears are good enough to hear a difference, they are not good enough to say which one is best (subjective...

i get similar clicks when the latency is too low, try a higher latency

no such thing dude! well, i think you captured it as well as anyone could! did you down strum the guitar? the playing sounds like johnny's too, in fact i think it's an overall great performance & production

i agree, what is your set up please?
