For the price it really seems hard to beat. Looks like a Beta 58 clone, bought it for my kid to use so my other mics don't get broken. I was surprised at the quality construction and it works just as well as any other mic I have when hooked up to my PA. I am not recording with this, just using it as an extra, cheap vocal mic in my practice space. For what it is, what I need it to do, and the price- I feel very good about my purchase.
