Vintage 1970's Shure PE50SP SUPER PRO dynamic cardioid microphone High Z w mic clip SM58 # 4

        Hello and welcome to The House of Chrome.

 You are looking at a high quality Shure Brothers PE50SP model "Super Pro" dynamic cardioid microphone that has been cleaned and tested. It comes with the newer Shure mic clip. This unique microphone was manufactured sometime during the 1970's - 80's.

 This quality mic sounds like the day it was sold and is a superb model factory set at high impedance.

 Pic # 2 is from an old Shure 1974 Shure catalog showing the PE50SP. It doesn't go into great detail on the mic but it seems to be the forerunner to the SM58 with the main difference being the on / off switch and impedance setting. It looks almost identical and the mic is very rugged. These PE50SP mics hold up very well with age and I have yet to come across one that no longer works. It's testament to Shure's dedication to building quality mics.

 I did recently sell one of these to a gentleman who told me he had bought one brand new around the late 1970's for $300.00 so this was certainly a higher end Shure mic at that time. He missed his old PE50SP and that he was looking to buy another one after all these years. He loved that mic and loves the replacement just as much.

 I can tell you that this model has a fabulous sound to it. It has less bass than an SM-58. It sounds more mid range and smooth like a Shure PE56D, 565 model or 565S. A really nice tone. It has an all metal body with a stock painted finish. It has the typical SM-58 style globe / screen as well. The PE50SP comes with an on / off switch that's slides smooth and works just as it should...no issues.

 I have checked the inner foam pop filter and it's in excellent shape. This greatly reduces the dreaded "pops" you get from breathing or windy conditions. This mic is 100% and ready for any live performance.

 These mics are uni-directional picking up only the sound that's directly in front of the screen cancelling out most background noise making it ideal for situations where audience noise, audio equipment or fellow band members might be a problem.

 These lite weight mics are built like tanks and can be handheld for prolonged periods of time...or placed in a mic clip.

 As you can see there are typical signs of wear on the painted handle but still very good looking overall and about average for a mic of this age. The stock painted finish shows some worn paint, small scratches and scuffs but free of any dents or fractures. The Shure label looks very nice and completely legible. The globe is free of any dents or corrosion. Mic is 100% complete and solid. No loose parts. No odd odors either.

 MICROPHONE STAND SHOWN IS FOR DISPLAY PURPOSES ONLY...NOT PART OF THIS SALE.

 Microphone is a very conservative 6 + on a scale of 1 - 10 physically speaking. The real beauty of this mic is the sound it produces. Hook this one up and you are ready for any live event.  

 The clip is a newer Shure model but works perfectly. Gives the mic a wide degree of tilt up and down and the softer compound won't scratch the handle. It will screw on to any American desk or floor stand.

 This mic just needs a standard XLR cable to operate the mic.

 This rarer mic should do you justice and it's always cool to use something that few others have or know about.

  And as always...
