I have boiled it down between the MXL V67G condenser mic or the Shure SM57, I realize that both are different recording types, but am trying to figure which one I will be best off with all things considered.

Equipment

-M-Audio MobilePre USB Portable Audio Interface
-MBP with Garageband
-And I will be wanting to record melodic/folky/alternative-mainly acoustic guitar and vocals with this arrangement.
-Budget is around the 100.00 mark and really just want anyones advice on benefits in recording with both if you have any history or know anything about them.
-First time recorder so really trying to just know i will be alright for my first home studio set up…

Thanks in advance
or gals : )

I would go with the MXL between the two you listed. Although the 57 is a great dynamic mic the condenser will detail the style of music & vocals better IMHO.
