Frequently Asked Questions

The steel construction of these bells is inherently more stable than older bronze sets, but still susceptible to temperature changes; regular tuning is recommended.
The provided mallets are geared towards a traditional orchestral sound; for brighter, more percussive tones, you’ll want to experiment with different mallet types.
The frame is designed for portability with the wheels; disassembly isn't really intended, though the bolts are accessible if you’re inclined to modify it.
