Do not be confused by other sellers claiming higher RRPs, or describing models as "Shure 58" - those are often in fact the inferior Shure PG58 - not to be confused with this 'industry-standard' SM58 !

Also be aware of fake SM58s that look very close, including packaging and documentation, but do not compare sonically at all.

Supplied with GST invoice. Full 24 month NZ-distributor warranty. The RRP as advertised by the distributors is $199. GST and shiiping is INCLUDED.
