Catherdral Pipes makes some of the most interesting looking gear. I've looked at there stuff in the past, as well as a bunch of other makers like Pearlman, Beezneez, Telefunken, etc. The Flea has been at the top of my list for a couple of years. I want something 47ish and the Flea might be the mic that comes closest to that.

This is a nice A/B/C comparison that includes a vintage 47.
