The old favorite, the Shure SM58, has been in my experience the most
reliable "general purpose" mic ever sold to the public, and I VASTLY
prefer
that, to the Shure SM57 for "my" harmonica sound...
If I was to chose just ONE mic "to own", as my ONE AND ONLY microphone
for
harmonica, it would be a Shure SM58, with on/off switch.

Amen, brothers and sisters! I still have my 1st one after more than 40
years...?? 1968? And a Shure transformr Hi-Lo with 27ft cable and 1/4"
plug. That was my main mic for years.
but that 545 and VHT ? Pure synergy.
I guess it's because I'm still a horn player at heart. And when I get those
tones that sound like a horn coming out of my amp, I start to think like a
horn player and not a harmonica player. It opens up an additional realm of
possibilities in my mind.
When life asks you to jump in...
Plug it in. Play. Turn the knobs.
