"For the price, it can't be beat"
Sound:
This mic doesn't respond well with dynamic volumes, so don't expeect to scream and still get a good, clear signal. For a steady singing or talking application, it works fine.
Feature:
Custom mic clip, big whoop. Doesn't need features though.
Quality:
Shures are obviously known for taking damage, and this mic is no exception. Well designed on the outside, like all the other Shure mics.
Manufacturer Support:
N/A, haven't had trouble with one
Value:
For the price, this cannot be beat. DO NOT go to Radio Snacks and buy a $30 QTR mic when you can get this for $40; your extra 10 bucks will be well spent.
The Wow Factor:
To be honest, I outfitted my studio with these because I wanted a Shure, but I didn't want to shell out $100 a piece for the SM58s. It's definitely worth it to be able to say "I have all Shure mics in my studio."
Overall:
I work for an internet comedy station, and I use all PG48's in my studio; for live performance, they definitely hold up. If I need new mics, they will definitely be Shures.
