Yeah, there's loads of stuff on the fakes. I remembered that the easiest way to tell was by checking to see if the XLR pins were numbered, but doing a quick google this doesn't seem to be fool proof anymore. It seems the countefeiters are upping their game. :)

I bought a GREAT fake once, it was pretty much identical in every way except for the sound when I compared it to a real 58 - so much more bottom end and clarity with the real one. Very difficult to spot, I would echo the comments about buying from a registered dealer as mine was bought used from a local guy on a music forum and it all ended badly!
