Frequently Asked Questions
This triangle prioritizes a darker, more controlled tone; thinner triangles have a brighter, more sustained ring, which might be preferable for certain applications.
They are subtle imperfections inherent to handmade instruments; don’t expect machine-perfect uniformity, but they won't drastically impact performance.
The included beater is adequate for basic playing, but serious performers will likely want to invest in a higher-quality beater to fully explore the triangle's tonal capabilities.
