Mics for marimba recordning

Hello all!

      I've been wanting to make high quality marimba recordings without breaking the bank. Does anyone have any suggestions on Mics, micing techniques for marimba, and interfaces for such a job?

I saw a couple threads for micing a marimba in a marching band type senario, but I'm not that knowledgeable on how recording would change the techniques and equipment.

I have a Mac Pro and a Powerbook G4 that I will primarily be using for all this. Any help would be appreciated :)

I am assuming you are recording a single marimba. . . So . . .

I love these mics for marimba stuff. . . and they come with USB adapters.
