I've got a ton of ferrite clip-ons from when i was first trying to fix this problem about a year ago, they didn't do anything unfortunately :[

so this is the sm57? I just find it odd because I never hear anyone talking about this when they recommend them. I guess its caused by some of my neighbors electronics because the problem always goes away at around 1 or 2 am.
