Avedis Zildjian Company 12" Traditional Gong Table-Top Stand Set

Wow, this gong packs an incredible punch. I bought this for my team in office, the beautiful resonance of its sound is so rich and rewarding. Definitely a motivator for the sales team to close deals because they get to bang it every time. This gong is awesome, worth way more than it costs!

Absolutely amazing. I've never had a gong but always wanted to. So happy that my very first one is of such a great quality. Couldn't be happier. I wanted a gong to do house blessings and cleansings, but in between I wanted it to be on display. I bought a little Indonesian ottoman for it to stand on, they look so harmonically together. LOVE the sound, you can really feel the waves of vibrations go through your body. It goes - bam - whaw-whaw-whaw-whaw... for a very long time. You can make it sound very soft and quiet or really take the loudest out of it, depends on the purpose. I find myself play on it every time I see it. The Buddha room loves it. Mine came with a mallet, although it didn't have a hole in it to put a string through, easy fix. The mallet recommended below the product description to buy with this gong is way too big for it, be selective. I wanted my gong to be mobile so I can take it to backyard for parties as well, so this is the perfect kind. Highly recommending.

I purchased this gong after watching a British mystery on TV where dinner guests were summoned by a gong. My spouse commented: we need one of those! Wonderful gong sound-just what I expected! And it can be heard in the reaches of our rather large home-we tested! Much more civilized than Alexa.

It worked for my sound therapy sessions… resonates well

Excellent quality gong, sturdy and well made stand, mallet included. Not cheap, but worth every dollar. You may want to stick pads under legs to avoid marking furniture or floor.Superficially, a gong is a one note instrument. Not so in practice: hitting at different distances from the center will activate or deactivate certain harmonics and a variety of chords (not in the usual chromatic scale) can be produced. Also, the quality of the sound depends on the way you hit. Interestingly, the gong is activated by nearby noises (for instance, a loud conversation). No wonder that composers like Olivier Messiaen were endlessly fascinated with the sound of gongs.

If you want a gong this is a gong . Has great sound and looks very nice .

This is a great gong, if you're looking for a reasonably small, fairly inexpensive gong. Pretty heavy, good sound, doesn't seem cheap. But the one we got did NOT come with the stand pictured, rather it came with another one you can see around the Web (the more traditional-looking all-metal stand with two vertical bars and the gong hanging from a bar across them). We actually wanted the stand we got, so it was a bonus for us, but word to the wise ... Another good thing about the stand we got is that the metal base bars are wide enough to take some pads or little feet, if you want to put the thing on furniture that might be damaged otherwise.

Awesome gong ,fast shipping, great price for such an amazing beautiful instrument as this genuine hammered gong,authentic sound and so very pleased!!!if your on this fence,pull the trigger, you'll be amazed you did!I am!!!!
