Shure PG52 Dynamic Kick Drum Microphone

PG52 Dynamic Kick Drum Microphone description:

The Shure PG52 is a unidirectional (cardioid) dynamic kick drum microphone that is specifically tuned to capture the kick drum’s low–end punch.

• Tailored frequency response is smooth and extended. Tuned specifically for kick drum applications.
• Cardioid polar pattern picks up the most sound from in front of the microphone and some sound from the sides. Less susceptible to feedback in high volume settings.
• Dynamic cartridge has a simple, rugged coil. Handles extreme volume levels without distortion.
• Cartridge includes a neodymium magnet for high output level.
• Internal shock mount for reduced handling noise.
• Durable metal construction.
• Integral stand mount.
• Hardened steel mesh tapered grille that resists wear and abuse.
• Includes 15ft. (4.57m) cable and storage bag.
