One of my permanent band members dropped it on the concrete floor and made a dent in the windscreen. How do you fix it. I unscrewed the windscreen and there is a spongy lining inside. I could just push the windscreen back with a finger, however supposedly it has to be a better and a smarter way.

Thanks

worked for me. just leave it if you want.

Purely an aesthetic problem, I have two 57's and one 58, all of them are very road worn and beaten, plenty of dents and still going strong.

Back in the day when I cared about such things, pushing with your finger from the inside is what I did. Nowadays if they work, it's all good.

Or buy a windscreen and put it on, problem solved.

Hopefully the inside element is okay.


I have a couple of these I keep just in case :

Don't leave home without it!

Dent equals mojo!

however, anti-denting it with the finger like you said is perfectly ok.

Always remember, it's a Shure, so it's a Rock'n'Roll tool!

Yeah, it was a real rock-n-roll move, after finishing his favorite "Twinkle Twinkle..." tune he threw the mike on the floor with the whole "I am finished" theatrical bit. Luckily it's a shure and it still works fine. The mesh on the screen seems soft so I will push it back with a finger as suggested.

Thank you again.

Tell him to get his own mic or replace yours if he wants to do theatrics.

The only trouble is that he is two years old...
Lesson learned, next time the mike has to be on the stand and not in his hands or he is getting a fisher price mike (buzzy one).

LOL My son did some similar stuff at that age too.
