The Shure SM137 is a flat-response cardioid condenser instrument microphone – an honest pencil condenser with an ultra-thin diaphragm, transformerless preamp and a -15dB pad that takes it from choir overheads to point-blank guitar cabs. Low self-noise and a three-layer mesh grille make it as happy on strings as on snare.
