I have a friend who uses the drum mics and has had some very good results with them. he is a professional and thought they were toys, plugged em in and was very pleasantly surprised !
Had a bunch of smaller Marshall hybrids over the years and finally took the plunge and got me a TSL100.
It sits on top of a 1960A 4 x 12" and is just sexy !!
I love it !!
you could try some of the "oxy" type cleaners though it may change the color of the wood. You might want to try it on a bit of scrap first and don't leave it on too long !
Or, you could use a stain and make the whole neck darker.
High praise for the SP T3 ! I may have to check one out !!
I used a SP C3 with a Focusrite Platinum series pre the other day on a female vocal and it nearly blew my socks off !
The pres on the XDs are supposed to be better than the pres on the D1600
However, it is worth mentioning that the XD series have been discontinued by Korg.
It is a huge bummer.
Korg will still honer warrantees and offer support and that said the quality of the existing XDs is still the same...
I have a Peavey (RQ2318) desk I used to use for extra pres with my 828 (via the inserts) that Im selling.

I used one on a flute last weekend and it sounded great !
I don't like it on my voice however that doesn't mean it is a bad vocal mic. Like other folks have said, it has "character" which means it will shine on some voices and sound like crap on others !
