I have the Centennial two-bell set. Took a lot of work to track the set down. It was sold out very quickly. Latin Percussion should make more: there is obviously a demand. My Prestige bell has a different badge (sticker) than the one in this video. Actually, this video raises questions, rather than answering any. The Centennial Prestige bell that I have plays a clangy F#. The Latin Percussion video of the non-centennial one plays a dry E - the first E above middle C on the piano. Maybe Latin Percussion's bells are not made to a consistent note. It is hard to get information out of them. Incidentally, the Latin Percussion blurb about the Centennial set says that Tito "always" played these two bells. I have seen lots of pictures and videos of him, and never do these bells appear. Also, Tito was playing long before the Latin Percussion company started in 1964. I am not angry about this, and I don't care, but the claim is not true. Tito, of course, did play their timbals. There is no sound sample of the Centennial timbale set, but the website says "sold out", so it does not matter. It would be interesting to hear them. (I have their Giovanni set, and it is great.)

Thank you for your comment! (^^)

No two cowbells sound alike. I used to sell JCR hand bells, and there were significant differences from bell to bell of the same size/shape.

I am willing to purchase the old one. Name your price. 😂

[@tommyblack7998]

The non-Centennial Prestige bell is still available.

@@tommyblack7998 I know. The sound is not consistent throughout history.
