You don't tell me he puts out more than the 132dB quoted for a Schoeps MK4, do you?!! (...or did you mean it metaphorically? )
This is a live act, so the player will not stay at a fixed 30cm from the mic. It seems more realistic to have him at about 1m to smooth out the changing distances of the moving player. I don't have any of the dynamic mics mentioned above but I could rent a 10dB pad for the Schoeps to reach a max. SPL of 142dB. The Oktava with 10dB pad would give me the same rating, but I would like to stay with Schoeps of course.

Best regards
Hermann
