Vintage 1970's Shure 575SB dynamic microphone Low Z Black Plastic w accessories 540 550S 579SB # 1

Hello and welcome to The House of Chrome. You are looking at a rugged "general purpose" dynamic microphone made by Shure Brothers during the 1960's - 1970's that comes with the accessories shown. This 575SB has a perfect working dynamic element and is very rugged in nature. I very rarely ever come across one in non-working order. This mic was an entry model mic that is great for general broadcasting & tape recording purposes with it's Low Z setting. It comes with the metal mic clip, lavalier necklace, data sheet, short cable and original 575SB box shown. Pic # 2 is from an old Shure catalog showing this very model and all of the mics performance characteristics. It actually uses the exact same element as the Shure 540 and 540S model mic. It was a very affordable microphone if you didn't want to spend an arm and a leg on some of the more sophisticated cardioid dynamic mics of that time. Very lite weight with an all plastic body and metal grill it's easy to hold and the 575SB mic measures 4 1/2 inches long X 1 inch across. If you like the look of this mic but need one in High impedance the 575S model was your go to. This 575SB is low impedance with a dirtier tone which has just a tiny amount of bass. More midrange and bright in nature. Signal strength is 100%. These make great harp mics in the high impedance setting by the way. As you can see the black plastic finish is in pretty nice physical condition with typical lite scuff marks. No fractures or deep scratches however. The front silver metal bezel shows no wear and the front grill is free of any dents, odors or tarnish. The Shure label looks very nice as well. I replaced the inner foam screen that helps reduce unwanted pops from speaking to closely into the mic. The on / off switch works perfect with zero issues. Mic is solid with zero issues an comes with a short 7 foot original attached cable. The cable itself is soft, pliable and has a male Switchcraft 1/4 inch end connector. There is an original metal mic clip that comes with the mic. It fits the 575SB perfectly providing a firm grip on the mic and will screw onto any desk or floor stand you have. The clip is in fantastic condition too. The data sheet shows wear but not too shabby overall. A great accessory that has a ton of technical info on this mic that will come in handy. The lavalier necklace is like new and allows you to hang the mic around your neck if need be. The original box has it's inner foam pads that are in great condition keeping the mic safe and snug. While the box shows lite wear it works great and a great accessory for resale value. I would rate the cosmetic condition of this mic a true 8 + on a scale of 1 - 10.
