Recording Glockenspiel (Bells)

I am going to be recording a bell set for a Indie/Hawaiian/Folk kind of song. I thought about just using a keyboard or MIDI sound, but I feel there is more integrity in going for the actual acoustic instrument.

Here are my current available mic choices:

1 LDC - AT2020
2 SDC - Cheap Nady's
1 SM58
Multiple Cheap Nady Drum Mics

Church recording challenge

I've been handling the care and feeding of the church sound reinforcement system for a while now and doubling as the roadie for our traveling singers. FWIW, the church PA is a garden variety TOA mixer/amp in a rack with Shure SM58 wireless mics, wired podium mics on the pulpit and and lectern, and a Tascam tape deck. We've been distributing and posting podcasts of the sermon.
