Dream gongs

Bao

Pitched or nipple gong with a unique raised center boss which creates a distinctive, focused pitch center, these gongs ring with one primary tone through their entire sonic duration. Available by the inch from 4" high pitch, to 40" low pitch, in standard black face or machined face. Comes with a mallet.

Chau

The Chau gong or Tam-tam represents the most commonly known “gong”. It is found in symphony orchestras and rock bands the world over. It is not specifically pitched, containing a broad and complex combination of frequencies coupled with tremendous dynamic range and sustain. Available from 6" to 60"+ and each comes with a mallet.

Feng

Sometimes referred to as a “wind gong”, the Feng has a constantly evolving tone, from a gentle murmur to thunderous explosions. Faster attack, explosive full-frequency sound, and a shorter duration differentiate the Feng gong from the Chau

gong. The gong is flat, has no lip and is fully lathed on both sides, contributing to its distinctive look. Available from 6" to 60"+ each comes with a mallet.
