Gongs

While often used interchangeably, Tam Tams generally have a more complex overtone structure and a 'washy' quality, while gongs often emphasize a more defined fundamental tone.

Gongs don't have fixed pitches like tuned instruments. Their perceived pitch is determined by the dominant frequencies present, influenced by size, material, and construction.

Regular dusting with a soft cloth is essential. Avoid harsh chemicals and always strike with a soft mallet to prevent damage to the surface.
