I use the Gefell 300s and think they're pretty nice, but not fantastic. I'd get the DPAs, though, if I had the money. From my single experience with them, the Josephson C42s can be absolutely killer on plucked stringed instruments, but tend to be quite bright. Some would say overly bright through my Daking Mic Pre IV. Speaking of preamps, for your application I would use as quiet a preamp as possible (Millennia, Grace, et al)because SDs tend to be a little noisy on quiet sources. I don't have experience with the other mics mentioned. I'm not a big fan of the Neumann KM184s, except on nylon string guitar, where I think they really shine.
