Reccommendations for Windscreens?

[M.C.Abrams]

Hi, I'm going to purchase a windscreen for the Shure SM58 mic (rap vocals) and I wanted to know if any of you could suggest a windscreen below $30. Thanks!

Man, just go buy a windscreen.....................
Just make sure you get the color of your choice though!

While in essense a screen is a screen I compared it to the cheap one I have and it does do a noticable job of stopping pops and just stopping air in general from escaping through to the mic. plus if ya boys is spiiting hard it can be cleansed .

Maybe if it is just you, but I wouldn't if you're working with other artists. (That could be a bit disturbing and quite uncomfortable)
Damn, Moms pantyhose? I don't know about that homie!

Hahaha oh snap...panty hose does work tho...and its much cheaper than a windscreen...like 2 or 3 dollars
