Recording Gong

Can some of you give me some suggestion of what the best mic set up for recording big Gong.

I am doing post for a short film and need to recording these gong sound. The percusionist is creating all kind of weird and interesting sound from a big gong. She is running a piece of rubber on the surface of the Gong to create this ghost sound and I like to capture it right.
