Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, due to the handmade nature and bronze material, expect differences in pitch and resonance – some will be brighter, others darker.
A small, dedicated wind gong stand is ideal, allowing for free rotation and a full, unimpeded sound. A cymbal stand can work in a pinch, but may dampen the resonance.
The smaller size and thinner bronze result in a shorter sustain and less complex overtone series compared to premium, larger gongs, but it still provides a distinct, atmospheric tone.
