Drum Mic Questions

[swsmusic]

I wanted some advice on what mics i should purchase for miking a full kit. I have a pair of at 4041's that I use for overheads and an AKG D112 for the kick. I am interested in finding out what you all are using for the toms, snare, and high-hats. I have a few 57's and they sound great, but I wanted some more specific mics for this application. Any ideas would greatly be appreciated.

thanks!
