Default Shure 556S Mics

I have a couple of 556S mics in which the windscreens and internal rubber
mounts
are fully deteriorated. Does anyone repair these things other than Shure?
While
I would never use them for anything, they do have some emotional value
because
they were my father's.


Try the 556S on guitar cabinets. For some music you might be very
surprised. As an 'effect' mike on horns, too. In a couple of studios I
worked at we had several 556Ss. They were used frequently even though we
had a full complement of AKG, Neumann, EV, Schoeps, and Telefunkens to
choose from.
