Shure SM137 Instrument Condenser Microphone, a versatile mic for a variety of applications.
The SM137 has a frequency response that combines the best of both worlds, a smooth high-end and a tightly controlled low-end. Made using an ultra-thin diaphragm, this mic is what is needed when picking up the subtle nuances of an instrument. Providing a 15db pad Shure's SM137 has natural sound reproduction for quiet acoustic and high volume applications.

Road worthy, don't forget to take this mike on tour. Made with rugged nearly indestructable chassis', Shure's SM series of mics were built to take the punishment of night-after-night gigging.

Shure SM137 Features

• Ultra-thin diaphragm for smooth high end and tight, controlled low end
• 15dB pad for performance consistency across a wider range of high SPL sources
