Cardioid Dynamic Microphone

The Gauge ECM-58 is a handheld dynamic microphone designed for live vocals or studio use.

The ECM-58 closely resembles the Shure SM58, the standard live vocal microphone for decades.

Barry Rudolph 2010

I found the ECM-58 to work well for vocals — it handles everything put to it with no trouble. It is also rugged too; I accidentally dropped it without incurring any dents as I’ve seen happen with other mics. Just as an experiment for recording guitar with the ECM-58, I found it was fatter and warmer sounding versus my SM57 when recording electric guitar amps. I checked this twice — I didn’t believe it.

Gauge microphones are built in China and thoroughly tested in USA.

The Gauge Microphones ECM-58 is also known as: ECM58.

The mic was released in 2010.
