WTB: Shure SM57

[kamran]

Looking for one or two sm57s, its okay if they're a little beat up but please don't sell me something that looks like its been run over

These go for $100 new, probably $85 after haggling, so name a price and maybe we'll work something out. Shipping or local are both fine

I have just picked one up tonite for $40.

I'd say CL & look under studio gear for sale.
for what it costs to fix or relace components in one I'd just buy new.

Thanks for the advice, I was looking at GC's used website and I can get two for under $100. That's probably what im going to go with.

Watch out for fakes, plenty of them floating around. If it's too cheap to be true, it probably is. You can buy new ones pretty cheap, why take the risk?

Thanks for the heads up. Wasn't aware there were a lot of fake mics around. I ended up getting a new one from GC for $65 because they sold the used mic that Id already paid for. Alls well that ends well I suppose.
