The most important thing you can do to improve your recordings is play and record a lot. One of the least important things you can do is buy more or different microphones.

Obviously some people disagree strongly with my opinion, but I've done numerous same source level matched mic comparisons that demonstrate the minute audible difference between decent mics.
