Reference price

An "accessible" reference in the Shure spirit, within the PG ALTA series

The Shure PGA57 belongs to the PG ALTA range, designed to offer professional-level performance at a more affordable price. The idea is clear: to take the DNA of a classic instrument microphone, the SM57, and turn it into a robust and versatile solution for musicians, technicians, and creators who want an effective microphone without complications. With its modern design (metallic black finish and matching grille), the PGA57 confidently holds its place both on stage and in a recording setup.

What uses? An instrument microphone to take everywhere

Designed for high-level instrument miking, the PGA57 is particularly comfortable in front of a guitar or bass amp, as well as on instruments capable of delivering pronounced transients (woodwinds and brass, for example). Its cardioid pattern helps focus on the targeted source, which is valuable during rehearsals, on crowded stages, or live with multiple monitors.

Its versatility doesn't stop there: it can also be used for miking a hi-hat or certain cymbals depending on the context, and can serve as a backup for onstage backing vocals when a solid, easy-to-place, and easy-to-use microphone is needed. The result: a "Swiss Army knife" microphone for situations where you want to handle high SPLs while maintaining controlled sound.
