Meinl 32" symphonic tamtam

This is one of a range of gongs sold by Meinl under the banner of 'Symphonic Tam-tam" It comes under the category of 'Symphonic Gongs' or more accurately 'tam-tams' but as 'Symphonic Gong' is technically copyright by Paiste, Meinl chose to use the descriptor 'Symphonic Tam-tam'. They were made in a range of sizes - 24", 28", 32", 36" and 40". The metal is nickel silver brass (Copper, zinc, nickel). This gong is 32"/80cm in diameter and is suitable for both sound therapy and orchestral use, 32" being a good 'all round' size of gong. They were made by Oetken Gongs for Meinl.
They are no longer made but the equivalent gongs are still made by Oetken gongs in their own range.
