    Default Shure SM57 repair

    Has anyone ever hit the swivel head with a stick and knocked it off? There's a metal band inside and I know there's a way to slip the swivel head back on, but for the life of me I cannot figure this out.

    It's not the screen, the entire top cover to the capsule has been knocked off.

    Pics? I dunno - it's not designed to come off as far as I know, and without pics I can't even relate what happened to your to mine.

    How close is the mic to the playing area? You might not have the problem again if it's kept no closer than the edge of the rim.

    Just the head of the mic was over the drumhead, but I was playing one of those long, fast, fills and got a bit overzealous on the first 8" tom strike. Now that I know how to replace those heads, all I have to do is get it done.

    Thanks late8!
