I really want a good dynamic vocal mic, but i also want a mic i could use for just about anything. Has anyone used the shure sm7b for anything on the drums, or guitar cabs? If so, how did it sound?
 
Amazing on guitars. Known to be really good as a flatter sounding kick mic - jazz, etc. One hell of a mic, in general. Also, it maintains its value pretty well, so reselling wouldn't be tough if you change your mind about it.
 
It's one of my go-to mics on cabs, Djembe, Zarb, doumbek, toms. The only problem with SM7 on drums is- it's so damn big. It's hard to squeeze it in. EV RE20 is also respected in all those roles, and also big.-Richie
 
I love my SM7 on cabs and vocals. Such a nice mic. And just a tip, I almost never use the included windscreen with it. I use a metal pop filter. It looks really cool without the windscreen, so that's a bonus. :)
 
that mic is good for screaming vocalists,distorted gtr cabs,kick drum,snare drum and more. a great buy.
