The Shure wireless mic that has the switches on the side is tricky to open. The first thing is to take the cover off the switches and do NOT lose the two buttons. To remove the plastic cover very CAREFULLY pry up with a knife point near the center from one side. There is a plastic tab at each end of the little plastic part that is easily broken. by prying at the center of one side these tabs are pulled in a little and will release. There is not much that is serviceable within the wireless part so it is kind of a moot point to open it. When installing the buttons back one has to align each before snapping the cover back on.

That is a great mic. It has a lot to do with the room your in and acoustics of it. If you are too close to your PA or monitor, it will also feedback. Lowering treble and reverb will also help.

Hi danny

There not that much to take apart on the sm58. On page 2 of the user manual there is a wiring diagram to reconnect wires. the grill wind filter part screws on. The socket on the bottom is secured with a screw.

Unscrew the wind screen and slide out inside component, be careful not to pull too hard and disconnect wiring. You may have to re-seal with a clear silicone gel afterwards.

SOURCE: shure sm58 mic does not have full power

You should consider a microphone with more power to get the volume you need. I can personally recommend the CAD C195 Cardoid Condensor microphone. It has great output. The only downsidefor most people is that they don't have phantom power. This is what gives the mic its boost. In order to get the most out of any micrphone, you need to have a preamp, an equilizer, and an output. The output is your PA system that drumbanger mentioned. 

But since you are using a Peavey, here is my strong recommendation. Get a mini preamp, and hook it up to your Peavey. You can use a Behringer 2mic mixing board for your preamp. It's small, and it can sit right on top of the Peavey. 

XENYX 1002

CAD C195
http://pro-audio.musiciansfriend.com/product/CAD-C195-Cardioid-Electret-Condenser-Microphone?sku=270775

The reason why I suggest the two-mic XENYX 802 and not the 1 channel 502, is that the 1 channel doesn't have phantom power.

In order to connect the XENYX to your Peavey, this is all you need. You can get one at radio shack for pretty cheap.

SOURCE: Trying to open my Shure sm58 beta

About half way up the body you will see a seam. The body with the cartridge and wind screen separates from the bottom half of the body at that juncture. You have to unscrew one from the other. You will see wires that have to be unsoldered. Make note of where they were soldered and do the same thing for both the mike with the dead cartridge and the mike with the good cartridge. Swap straight across and you're done. Hope this helps.

Shure PGX2/SM58 Power Button

Unscrew the cartridge from the top. Slide a screw driver down inside to pop off the switch cover. Remove the large "c" clip to remove the circuit board.

On/off switch is flaky. After a period of not being reliable, it now won't turn on. I've opened up the plastic and I can get the inside capsule loose, but it won't slide out... it's blocked by plastic...

Pop off the bezel that surrounds the switch actuator. Once you do that, the switch actuator will fall our in your hands. Remove the C-clip at the top of the microphone and the circuit board can be slid out the top.

The actuator moves the actual switch. So, if you are having problems with the actual switch, then you will need to replace it. Replacement parts can be ordered from Shure Parts at 800-516-2525.

It might cost less and be easier to simply send the microphone to Shure for repairs.

I have a shure sm58 wireless microphone when i switch it on everything seems normal but i dont have sound coming out of the receiver... after the troubleshoot i made i learned that the problem is the mic...

Unfortunately the sm58 capsule is very hard to get apart without damaging the contact surface.

You would have to take the contact side apart 1rst
bend all the little tabs away which hold the brass plated disk in place
then its a matter of edging the disk out....CAREFULL any scratch is bad!
Once you have the disk out you will need a 1/4" socket to remove the shaft bolt,
unsolder the green and yellow wires taking note where they were soldered.
Then the element can be pulled out.
What to after that, I'll let that up to you.
Be wary, you will void warranty.

Reparing a Shure SM58

If your talking about the coilwires on the diaphragm, you have to be very good at soldering with a variable temperature contolled soldering station, good magnifiers and pretty much one shot a doing it. You will have to carefully remove the varnish from the wires and bridge the broken gap with more of the same diameter wire. You are better off replacing the capsule. Hope this helps.

Sm 58 dropped and cuts out

Under which circumstances did it fail? Might be due to internal wiring getting loose or a damaged capsule after you have dropped it. Can you take it apart to confirm that?
