Q: Does this Mic come with a cable that would plug into my laptop? If not can I buy one that is compatible? Thank you!

Sorry to say that it does not come with a cable you can plug directly into your computer. But you can get a XLR(female) to 3.5 mm cable. Bad sound quality though! I would suggest buying a nice USB microphone, or USB audio interface you can can plug any mic in,whether it be condenser,dynamic, or ribbon. Which is most audio interfaces? Connect audio interface to computers' USB slot and then connect XM8500 to the audio interface mic input. Hope this helped!

Q: Does it come with a mic mount for the stand?

Yes it comes with a microphone adapter/clip and the 3/8" (european) metal adapter it comes with is already screwed into the mount. To use it on a 5/8" stand (USA) you need to unscrew it with a dime or something. The downside is that the 5/8" threads are plastic. Another downside is that the mount seems too small and tight even though it says "20-30mm" on it. Others have forced it on and said that it becomes a little looser over time. I don't want it to snap on me and cannot have it that tight so I just heated it up with a heat gun to make it looser. Now it's much more like a factory fit yet still very tight.

Q: What cable do you need to plug in into a guitar amp?

this, like almost all mics made to day, set up for low impedance 3 prong xlr cables. if you want to plug it into an amp (keyboard amp, possibly a bass amp, but reg guitar amps will very poor for this purpose- they are manufactured for electric guitar-electronic signature for a guitar is MUCH different than voice) with a 1/4 inch connector, you would need a transforming adapter transforming low impedance or "low z" to high impedance or "hi z". hosa and other manufactures make this. there are also special impedance matching "boxes" that do the same thing, but they require a cable on each side, xlr on one side, 1/4' on the other. and they can be 40 bucks rather than impedance transforming adapter. I think that the Hosa brand adapter is available thru amazon for less than 20 dollars. Don't bother trying to plug it into an electric guitar amp, will sound terrible.
