Frequently Asked Questions
The SM58 is a more refined mic with a broader frequency response, but the PGA58 gets you 90% of the performance at a much lower price.
It's a functional cable, but I'd recommend upgrading to a better quality XLR cable for optimal signal transfer and durability.
While primarily designed for vocals, it can be used for instruments like acoustic guitar or snare drum, but a dedicated instrument mic will generally provide better results.
