Woot!

I’ve been going to the House of Guitars Expo’s for a number of years now. One of the company reps who’s always there is the guy from Shure. I've bought a number of ’mics from him in the past (very good deals on EXPO days,) and he mentioned to me that Shure has a great warranty program. I inquired further, as I had a non-functional SM57 that was who knows how old. He told me to check the website, but he believed it was about $50 for “repair”. I found the online form, filled it out, and sent it in, hoping for the best. I saw the charge hit my credit card yesterday - $59.40. When I got home, I had this sitting on my doorstep (in a very well packed box). It's a brand-freaking new-SM57. For $59.40! I had more than gotten the cost back in the old one from years of use, and I’m sure I bought it used. This is such an amazing deal! Propers to Shure, Inc.!
