I've seen the ATM450s recommended a lot but I need them by Friday and Guitar Center doesn't carry them.

Any other recommendations? I want to try to keep it below 700 for a pair.
Yes , they will sound fine for those applications and many others like piano, conga , hand percussion , mandolin etc.
I am not using them currently for OH or acoustic but I was listening to some old recordings I used them on recently and I will use them again in the near future.
