This listing includes a traditional Chinese gong mallet.
The Chinese Wind Gong is fully lathed, all shiny. It also does not have a rim; it is flat on the edge. This design gives the Wind Gong its splashy celebratory tone when struck with a quick fast attack. However, larger wind gongs (32" and bigger) have a lot more sonic flavors, overtones and harmonics, unique pockets of tone that can sound like analog synthesizers with long sustain.
The wind moves things in this world be it trees or trash. When it ruffles your hair, the wind changes things in this world. The wind can turn things inside out in this world, umbrellas, tents, skirts - Woo! After a crash of wind, a splash of wind, a bright surprise that takes your breath away - the atoms settle once again. Everything returns and nothing is the same. Let this gong blow you away.
