Glad you liked it!

[@ptahamenra173]

Looking for my 3rd gong. Not clear what would match well with my 36 tam tam Meinl symphonic. I learned a lot from this video. 🙏🏿

[@WW11110]

Love ya man. Nice video. All my life. But we found each other.

[@matchafig9829]

For some reason I thought this was a joke, then I realized this is a serious video about gong…

[@gongsunlimited]

We like to have fun while telling you deep truths about gongs!

[@Moderndayblackhippie]

What type of affordable gong would you recommend to someone who is wanting to incorporate it into sound baths? I currently use crystal / tibetan singing bowls & an ocean drum.

[@gongsunlimited]

It depends on what you want to do with the gong and the size of the space that you'll be playing in, but generally the gongs start to open up a bit more at 26". A 26" Chinese gong would likely be the best bang for your buck if you wanted a gong on a stand. They do get deeper and a bit more complex with size, but you can still do quite a bit with a gong in that 26-30" range. My personal favorites are the Atlantis, Dark Star, Wind, and Eventual Horizon gongs! If you were wanting to walk around the room and play the gong in your hand, I would recommend something a bit smaller like an 18" Chinese gong with a handle. You could use a 20" or 22" as a hand gong, but it may get a bit strenuous after a little while. I'll put some links to all of our exclusive and traditional gong styles, with a video example of each size to make it easier to compare: gongs-unlimited.com/collections/unlimited-exclusive-chinese-gongs gongs-unlimited.com/collections/unlimited-traditional-chinese-gongs Thank you for watching and good luck on your sound healing journey!

[@KennyVert]

There's a very healing quality to the timber of your voice. Really nice to listen to, man. Thanks for the video.

[@gongsunlimited]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@amarynth100]

how does one knows what gong to chose ? based on note , frequency ? when it comes to healing what are the most requested?

[@soundbeings1]

Paiste all day long for us !!!! Planets amazing, Brilliants are brilliant !! Can't go wrong. And gongs sound differently on any given day. Amazing creatures! Have fun !

[@awapuhi]

I want to get the grandmother tesla with nipple, can you talk about Gongs with nipple?. I can hear that nipple gives focus boom but separate from wash without loosing the focus

[@gongsunlimited]

The nipple will focus and contain the sound, making it a more bell-like and slightly brighter, but still contained to the fundamental tone without much crash, making a very calm, meditative overall sonic experience. While it focuses the sound, I do think you lose some of the harmonic complexity and resonance that can be built over the top with non-nipple gongs. But I think the Great Mother Tesla Gong is a good option if you want something with a nipple, as it is a relatively small nipple and there's still plenty of complexity to be found. Here's a link to that one: gongs-unlimited.com/products/unlimited-great-mother-tesla-gongs?variant=41523133874368

He says gong 127 times by my first count.
