Re: [Harp-L] Query re mic

["scooter" <10hole@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I use a Beta 58 for vocals and it's a night and day improvement from the 
standard SM58. It has much
more punch and clarity. We've done gigs where I had a SM hooked up and as 
soon as I started singing
I could tell the difference and immediately grabbed the bass players mic 
stand with the Beta on it. I sometimes
play through the vocal mic and the harp is much punchier through the Beta. 
I've never taken the mic off
of the stand to play however so I can only compare playing acoustic through 
the mic on the stand.
