a list of some cool tom mics ...in my opinion: No particular order....

1. AKG c3000's (surprising)
2. AKG c1000's
3. sennheiser e604's (not too shabby)
4. md421's ( a classic)
5. Shure ksm 32's (very cool--but kinda big)
6. nueman km184's (very very cool but kinda $$$)
7. shure sm57 (why not)
8. Audio Technica 4051's or 4041's (kinda like km184's)
9. 414's

I think those are all common tom mics i have used. I always end up back with the km184's on rack toms and ksm32's on floor. or 421's all around. or e604's ........
