I'm guessing those small diaphram condensers in the studio are Neumann
KM84 mics. The Dawg likes those and it looks like he was using one for
his mandolin at the live show too. It's been replaced by the KM184
which has a high frequency boost, where the KM84 is flatter and sells
for a premium these days since it was discontinued. The SM81 is a good
small condenser with a flat response too. Not sure what those large
diaphram condensers in the studio are but they look like Neumann U87's
which everyone makes copies of.
