Meinl 16" Wind Gong

The 16" Meinl Wind Gong (WG-TT16) is traditionally handcrafted in China by using a special bronze alloy. These gongs are also known under the name Feng or Sun Gong. The shape is almost flat, and due to this the vibration of the gong spreads out extremely wide with a long sustain. The sound characteristic is mainly low pitched, and by playing the gong more powerfully it opens up nicely with sizzling overtones. This gong includes a mallet and gong cord.
