While you can find more affordable options, with K&M stands you don't need to wonder how long it will last. We have K&M mic stands still working perfectly after a decade of use.
This particular stand is fairly basic and sturdy. Won't fall down too easily with an SM58. For noticeably heavier mics, you will want a heavier stand. Height and boom length adjustments are good for most use cases. For drum overheads, the height might be just enough for most situations, but obviously, taller stands will fare better.
Hardware isn't the most appealing stuff, but I recommend staying away from the cheaper stuff, since it WILL break and it will break sooner than you'd want. We have several defunct stands as proof of that. Investing in proper hardware means you won't have to think about it again anytime soon.
Pros:
- sturdy
- adjustments
- price-to-quality ratio
