what's the tiniest, thinnest sounding bass drum I can get without it being some jerryrigged snare/tom thing?

That will sound like crap.

You want one of those fancy 18" kick drums that they use for the jazz?

What kind of sound does a small kick give compared to a bigger one?
less boomy, short decay, aggressive attack?

You could also take a 16" floor tom and convert it into a small bass drum. Trick makes a conversion setup, as do others.

You could also look into something like a Sonor Jungle Kit.

Damn, that's thin. (TWSS)

It's like a foot operated frame drum.
