No shootout experience from me, but I used the 121 on tablas last night and it sounded freakin amazing with no EQ, no nothin'. I just kinda put the mic up to get a sound and was stunned at how great the 121 worked for that application. It did excellent room mic duties on kit as well...I like how the 121 isn't too dark, too fat, etc. It has the great qualities of a ribbon without losing detail or transients. Its on my must have list...good thing everywhere I work has one!! :-)
