Product Description

Thomann Wind Gong 45, Wind Gong, Diameter: 45 cm, 18”, Handmade in Wuhan

*Note: Single piece - may vary in colour and sound*

PROS
  • • Handmade in Wuhan ensures a degree of tonal complexity and craftsmanship.
  • • 45 cm diameter provides a substantial, resonant wash of sound.
  • • Wind gongs offer a unique, ethereal texture unlike standard cymbals.
  • • The single-piece construction, while variable, can yield truly unique sonic signatures.
CONS
  • • The 'may vary in colour and sound' disclaimer means consistency is not guaranteed.
  • • Lacks a dedicated stand, requiring a separate purchase for proper mounting.
  • • The relatively thin bronze will be prone to dings and marks with regular use.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, they're fairly forgiving to play – the sound comes from a gentle strike, but it's good to learn proper striking techniques to avoid damage.
A dedicated wind gong stand is ideal, allowing the gong to freely resonate. A cymbal stand *can* work in a pinch, but will dampen the sound.
Each gong is individually hammered, meaning each will have slightly different tonal qualities and surface markings – expect some variation in pitch and sustain between units.
