Shure SM58S Vocal Microphone

After emailing Shure support, I can confirm that mine is indeed a counterfeit. Kudos once again to Massdrop for handling the situation so professionally.

@jrunsvold @TheDGP I did a quick test, probably very biased and unreliable, but the results are interesting. See the attached picture for more information. the roll-off at 100Hz and hi-cut at 10kHz are consistent with the frequency response graph. The low-end response seems solid. I still think it's a fake, but considering most people on the internet say counterfeits have a very thin sound with no low end this is one looks pretty decent, haha. https://d3jqoivu6qpygv.cloudfront.net/img_comment/LLNZ23_20150724_122949_IJGKF.png

I just checked mine as well and it passed most of the tests, except for wire color, date code, and there's a big solder blob at the base of one of the capsule contacts. Has contoured windscreen ring, "SHURE" embossed XLR, screen printed logo ring, two holes near the base, bare aluminum threads, no "caution" sticker on capsule... Honestly I'm not sure it's Shure.
