Re: The SM58...
... and your reading comprehension is suspect since I have clearly stated that I have no feedback issues .... and I doubt very much that you are sorry.
There were also many successful users of the Ford Pinto. It doesn't then follow that there was nothing wrong with the Ford Pinto just because you didn't happen to have it explode on you personally.
Just because I don't happen to agree with your assessment of the SM58 does not automatically make me stupid.
Surely you have something more productive to do than explain to me how inept I am because I don't use SM58's in my band?
@Caleb,
Replies like the above are the root of many long winded threads. Frequently the discussion deteriorates into "my dad is bigger than your dad" and any resemblance to intelligent conversation is thrown out the window.
@Chris,
I did use an SM57 once in a pinch 
... but then again, I would never suggest that an SM57 is a good kick mic .... even though I did manage to make the band sound pretty good..... hey maybe everyone should use a SM57 for kick! You can make the kick sound good with one after all. All you have to do is know how to use the channel eq properly It is very durable and will never break on you. What other reason would you need?
