Industry Standard!
This a great mic for many applications. It works effortlessly on Guitar amps and Snares as well as Acoustic Guitar...well just about everything really.
It can even be great on Vocals (voice dependent of course).
It's built like a tank to the best quality, like every Shure mic i ever used.
As for extra features....its doesn't have any extras cos it doesnt them.
Simply put, there is a reason every studio in the world have multiple SM57's in their mic lockers!
If you don't have this mic, do yourself a favor and buy at least 1!
All over it's a 5 Star must have.

Shure sm57
for those who havent heard of this legendary microphone: the shure sm57 is a dynamic microphone with a cardioid pickup pattern (40hz-15khz low impedance). The sm57 comes with a stand adaptor and carry case. The sm57 is probably the most versatile microphone on the planet and features on almost all recording out there. I use it to mic up my guitar speaker cabinet, but it can be used for recording snare drums and vocals because of its clear and precise sound reproduction. This microphone can take a beating and you will not have to buy a new one. On top of that, this microphone never depreciates. Dont think twice, go get one now, you will not regret it.

This combo is unbeatable. At this price range you cannot do better. You basically get the cable for free and it's an awesome one indeed not some cheepo stuff so well done Thomann.
TOP STUFF!!

Little but so powerful !
I am no sound engineer but I wanted to try and record something. I heard that SM57 were a great dynamic mic to capture guitars and snares. After buying a SM58 I wanted to get another "tool" in my recording kit. I have this friend, metal head to the core, wanted to get a demo done. Told him I was eager to learn and I wanted to help if he wanted. He said yes. Read you need to find a sweet spot on an amp, found it and we put the SM57 in front of his Marshall head. It was a pleasure ! we capture the guitars in no time, we barely touched the sound in the mix, just an EQ and a light compressor but nothing else. The SM57 did the whole job for us.
You can here what we've came up with here the same experience with my own drum kit. Place the SM57 over the snare and bang, it got it, it was like the shure got a mind of its own, knowing exactly what to do and what to capture. This is a great piece of equipment, every home studio need to have one. All rounder, small, lean but very powerful. The only little down is that the ring around the head rotates endlessly. It feels like you are unscrewing the top but you don't really. It gives me a weird feeling of "it's not robust enough". Don't get fooled. It is worth every cents.

about a...
One of the sound standards in recording and live industry. Very useful mic, you can record vocals, snare drum and guitar combos as well. It reproduces a flat mids which is actually a real sound of an instrument. It is very resistant and will serve you a lifetime.

What can I say?
I have a few of these and they are very useful indeed. I think everyone knows that by now.
I use them on e-guitar, e-bass and d-bass, snare and kick drum, vocals, keyboards, etc... it always sounds good.
The construction is solid, I don't think you could brake it if you tried.
I wish I had more of them.

Workhorse!
It's an SM57 - what more is there to say! Industry standard on so many sources for so many years, that in itself speaks volumes. For me, mine spends most of its life on a snare drum and does the job perfectly.

Shure SM57LC Bundle III
This a very good value for money bundle consisting of a Shure SM57 microphone and Cordial XLR cable. I was already aware of the quality of the SM57, but I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the XLR.
