Chris Martin's Microphone?

Does anyone know what brand & model it is?

I'm guessing it's a Shure SM58, or at least a Shure Beta 58! Details would be super appreciated!

It's a Shure Beta 58

I know this because in my school that's the mics I use (Or we use) because I'm my schools official sound technition for our soul bands gigs

and everytime I watch Live 2003 I always go all cheesy coz I know we use the same ones

Hope this helped

Ah, terrific. Haha, I've been looking at since even before I was a Coldplay fan, and now I'm five times as reassured about the decision!

I'm buying it, haha.

Yeah, I've actually used both. The Shure SM58 isn't clear enough. Sounds muffled and just, doesn't really put much into the voice--but at that, if you're a bad singer, it doesn't really show it as much. The Beta 58 on the otherhand will show your flaws, haha, which is something I like about it. I just need to buy one now.

THANKS!!

No problem

Yep, the Beta 58 is also really good for live shows & recordings, so either way you're sorted

Glad I could be of help
