the t.bone MB 60 Set

I have this as a rental mic for low budget set and for that it works the best because they are rugged and heavy and sounding decent for the price. Also Im using them as a karaoke mics and for that the switch is the must have.

There are many cheap mics on the market that feel more plastic and I have seen few that are breaking after first drop. This mic have been dropped and abused many times and still working. Also metal body helps to keep it with good feeling in hand. Sound wise the microphone is not so clear and crisp as some more expensive models but for that pricetag its more than enough. Microphone holder are cheap plastic and this is not holding the microphone so well so I have changed these for more known brand ones. And the case is good to keep the microphone safe.

In conclusion - for that price there is more than enough microphone to use and it feels real sturdy. Good budget mic for rentals or FOH talkback.

Long story short. My brother has been running his Motown group for years. At least 15. He has been playing here there and everywhere and hefting around his Mackie SRM450's and his Mackie bass bins in his bog standard white Ford Transit. Standard music, standard equipment, standard van. Guess what mics he uses? Well done! You guessed it right first time! Shure SM58's. I did a gig with him last weekend. Big marquee rich clients. I brought along these mics. I let him test them. I said next to nothing. A bit later he said he preferred them to the SM58's. He said they have more gain, they are clearer and they sound better. You have now reached the end of my review!

Our band was in need of a couple of spare mics and I needed some having just branched out into recording and mixing. I'd read the reviews on these and thought there was little 'too good to be true' in there. I couldn't have been more wrong.

The sound from these is incredible, really defys there price point. Very clear with a slight peak in the mid-highs. They record exceptionally well.

They perform brilliantly on stage with no more feedback issues than we were getting from any other mic even in the smallest of spaces. Feedback is more often a setup issue than the mic itself anyway.

The build quality also took me by surprise. I was expecting a 'plastic' feel to them, but they are metal, there is some real heftiness to these. They feel like they will last a life time if you look after them. One has already survived 3 drops without a mark or any knock in performance.

The mic holders are nice and strong, but could probably do with being a little more flexible, they are quite stiff.

The carry case was an added bonus! Foam padded and holds all the mics and there holders. It also fits in my gig bag quite nicely!

Marked down 1 star on features due to the lack of a pad switch on the mic, but maybe I'm expecting too much?

I would've been over the moon getting just one of these at this price, but 3? With mic holders and a carry case? Do yourselves a favour and buy some before Thomann realise they're sitting on a gold mine and put the price up.

Having recently bought some cheap Behringer microphones which were very good for the price I thought I would try a set of these MB60's by Thomann. At the price I wasn't expecting much but..

The microphones come in a good quality carry case and come complete with stand clips. The build quality of the microphones is absoultely superb for the money and they even come complete with an on off switch. On plugging one in I noticed that the handling noise was a bit more than an SM58. These microphones are also quite a bit louder than an SM58 and I had to turn the gain down on the mixer. They have a different tonal quality compared to a Shure but it certainly isn't unpleasant. In fact I was shocked at how good they sounded considering they work out at under 10 Euros each. I would happily recommend these microphones to anyone who needs a cheap set of microphones for backing vocals, practice sessions or karaoke. Perhaps even lead vocals. With a bit of EQ they sound fantastic for a 10 Euro microphone and at that price it doesn't matter if you drop one and break it. Having said that they look sufficiently well built to withstand a few knocks.

In conclusion, don't hesitate... Buy some, they are great microphones at a ridiculous price!

If you are looking for a set of mics for your band then these are really very good value, especially if you are, like most bands, short of money! They are robust with metal bodies, come in a neat carry case complete with the mic holders and sound good. I've used Shure SM58s for years, but these t.Bone mics are nearly as good. In fact I am hard pushed to hear the difference. Also, if you are looking for a set of backup mics then these would be perfect.
So, they're strong, well made, come in a case and they sound really good. For the price Thomann are selling them at you wont do better!
