Shure SM58 with or without ON/OF switch: Which is better?

After you have seen a number of speakers turn off their microphone by unconsciously playing with the switch, the answer is obvious. I bought a SM58 without a switch.

Thanks for your video!
Well, I wanna add that on the SM58S you can lock the switch at the "ON" position.
Just turn the mic on, unscrew the little screw thats under the switch, turn the little plate that is holden by this screw and tight (is this the right word?) the screw again.

Now you can´t turn the mic off any longer :-)

Never had a problem with the switch turning off, I preferred to keep my conversations on stage private, and be in control of the Mic

biggest problem is when the switch breaks lol. then gain, I guess now I have the non switch version;)

I've used the SM58 WITH the On-Off switch for 50-years without a single problem, under all conditions. To keep my conversations private and to instantly squelch any feedback issues, it is the only microphone I have ever used. For sheer reliability, it cannot be beat.

Thank you for your video, it did help a lot to my decision !
