Collection: All Gongs

Every gong we carry lives in this collection — Chinese Chau gongs with their signature lathed black-dot center, flat crash-forward wind gongs, Thai gongs with a raised center boss and focused fundamental, and modern hand-hammered instruments from makers in Germany, Italy, the USA and beyond. Sizes run from about 6 inches up to 80 inches; as a rule, the larger the gong, the deeper the fundamental and the longer the sustain, so let the space you play in and the depth of tone you want guide your choice.

Sound healers tend toward larger symphonic and planetary gongs, percussionists often look for chau and wind gongs that speak quickly, and a small gong on a stand makes a memorable gift. We record audio of many of our instruments so you can hear the exact character of a gong before you buy, and our showrooms in San Francisco and Los Angeles welcome listening visits. If you are browsing gongs for sale and are not sure where to begin, start with size and tradition — or just ask; we have been matching people with gongs since 2005.
