Help me identify this microphone.....

[enemyofthesun]

I saw these mikes the sound guy (who is also a good local sound engineer) miked a dum kit at a show with last night and I cant figure out which ones they were..

they were black, had a long slender handle but a big bulb head. The handle was longer and slenderer then a sm58 and the head was also much bigger with a black grill as well. He used these on toms and floor tom.

Do you know what this was? AKG maybe??

I think they could've been AKG 535's, when I interened at a local studio we used them on toms, snares and even cymbols, there really good souding mics.

Could have been C535 or a D80 which is used for toms as well.
