I just joined yesterday, and posted this question in the "Newbie" section. But now I see that it should have been posted here.

So I just bought a used Shure Model 51 and found it's dead. I get a completed connection (short) across pins 2 and 3. So I'm looking to put in a new element. My first choice would be the Shure R59 from an SM-57 or SM-58. But looking at the length of those cartridges I'd doubt they'll fit in the shell of a Model 51.

I've read your postings from afar for years, so I thought I'd join to see what you guys would suggest for such a shallow shell design. I want to use it for actual on-stage work, low impedence, like an SM-58 would do.

Any suggestions?
