Shure SM137-LC Professional Instrument Condenser Microphone

Shure SM137 Instrument Condenser Microphone

The Shure SM137 is a highly adaptable cardioid condenser microphone designed to deliver accurate, natural sound reproduction across a wide range of acoustic and high-volume performance environments. Engineered with an ultra-thin diaphragm, the SM137 offers a smooth high-end response paired with a controlled and focused low end, ensuring clarity and precision whether used on guitars, percussion, strings, or other instruments that demand faithful audio capture.

Its flat-response design enhances versatility, making it suitable for studio recording, live performances, and professional sound reinforcement setups. The microphone features a transformerless, Class-A preamplifier that minimizes distortion and reduces self-noise, allowing for exceptionally clean, transparent audio even in critical recording situations.

The 15 dB pad expands the microphone’s dynamic handling capability, enabling it to manage high sound pressure level sources without clipping or losing tonal integrity. This makes the SM137 ideal for miking loud instruments such as drums, brass, and amplified setups while still maintaining nuanced detail.

Built for reliability, the SM137 includes a swivel adapter for flexible positioning and a zippered pouch for protection during transport. Its rugged construction and consistent performance make it a dependable choice for musicians, engineers, and audio professionals who require a microphone that excels in both subtle acoustic capture and demanding high-volume scenarios.
