The is for all this excellent info!! Can you speak to the difference in materials? I’m considering getting a stainless steel gong from WOM. I currently have a chao gong. I hear steel fades away faster when played and might have a more harsh tone because the metal is thicker. Is that true?

Hi Jaya - yes I can speak about different materials. Stainless steel does fade away faster so you have to strike the gong more often to achieve a similar sustain. And harder mallets help - felt covered rather than fleece. WOM are one of the better makers of stainless steel gongs. But there are many types of stainless steel which is why stainless steel gongs from different manufacturers can sound so different whereas nickel silver gongs from manufacturers who use the same thickness of NS can all sound more or less the same.

My first time hearing one of these was at Wat Chedi, in Chiang Mai. I was 1 block away and just followed the vibes They let tourists hit the gong at the temple

Still a great gong, although the overtones structure seems to jump way quicker in decibels than other NS popular brand. It has a distinctive voice, that is very energetic, lively, yet has a nice deep tone at pianissimo.

It's just like buying pots and pans. You're eventually going to want the 80" Paiste gong, so just get that one first.

Thank you, this is very helpful and will make people more informed before stepping into this new world of sound. Perhaps you can advise. I'm an (amateur) percussionist, but a trained drummer expanding further into mixed percussion. I will probably buy a Chau Gong. I have a limited budget but would like be quite sure of my choice. Is a 24" too small for a gong, and where can I find a selection of mallets? I want the (mounted) gong to give a sound background to congas, bongos etc. Also where is the best place to buy second-hand? Thanks.

Thanks for you comments and questions. If possible, I would go for a 28" gong or even a 32" one. this will give you more scope with the music you intend to perform. Chau gongs tend to be cheaper than the equivalent German nickel silver versions. Regarding second hand, I'm not sure where you are in the World but there are no second hand dealers in UK where I'm based. Best bet is to go to Facebook as there are a couple of second hand gong pages on there. I occasionally advertise ones from my collection there as well. Regarding mallets, again the choice is vast. I recommend Dragonfly Percussions 'Resonance Series Medium Soft', 'Resonance series Large Double sided' and particularly for Chau gongs, their 'School Band Tam-tam' mallets. If you are based in UK, I can supply these. Get in touch via the Scientia Sounds website www.scientiasounds.com.

Thank you. Can I ask is it advisable to clean the gong if so with what? I notice there are products on the market? Is this advisable? If so how often? Is there anything we need to watch in terms of protecting the gong?

Hi Mazi - normally we say do not clean a gong unless there is a real need to. Use a soft cloth just to dust it. Use soap and water to remove finger marks, flume marks etc but THOROUGHLY dry it afterwards. For more stubborn stains get my book 'Gongs and Tam-tams - A Guide' available from the Scientia Sounds website as there is an entire chapter on this. Don't use any 'polishes' that have ammonia in. I will be doing a video on gong cleaning in the future.
