The 8" Atlantis Gong is a reminder of the power of the sea and the magic that is found there. Sea Salt is cleansing, and it's also a key ingredient in the metallurgy of this unique gong. It holds a clear tone with unexpected swaths of overtones in the crash.

The 8" Chocolate Drop Gong is a spin on the classic Chau gong. Unlike the Chau, it has a lathed outer rim and just a little chocolatey splash in the middle. It is a bright, joyous gong, with lots of celebratory splash when hit hard, and a fun, clean bell-tone when tapped.
Approximate Gong Weight: 1 lb
The 8" Dark Star Gong is a mystery of the outer limits, a pulsating shadow, on the fabric of space-time. It has a bell-like note when tapped, and a mysterious, crashy wah when hit harder.

The 8" Ma Gong is a fully lathed gong with a flat face, similar to the Wind Gong, but with a thicker face and a rim on the outer edge. The thickness and the rim create a gentle, clear, bell-like tone. These gongs tend to be slightly deeper than other small gongs because of the added weight.
The 8" Mother Tesla Gong is an unlathed gong, designed specifically for Gongs Unlimited. This is how a gong looks when it comes out of the oven. Most Chinese gongs have this color when they come out of their cast mold, but then are lathed to create different tones.

This 8.5” Hand Gong is perfect to hold in the hand, but also when you need a hand. It's style is similar to the pitch-bending Opera gong, in that the face is raised and the sound bends. But the face is a bit wider, so the pitch doesn't bend at such a feverish pitch. It's a more assertive and less shrieking call.
The 8.5" Jin Ban Gong is perfect to hold in the hand, but also when you need a hand. It's style is similar to the pitch-bending Opera gong, in that the face is raised and the sound bends. But the face is a bit wider, so the pitch doesn't bend at such a feverish pitch. It's a more assertive and less shrieking call.
The 9" Che Sui Gong has a beautiful clear tone. It sparkles the listener with lightness and music. It is similar to the Ma gong, but deeper in tone, perfect for calling your family to dinner.
The 9” Opera Gongs have a unique sound the world associates with Chinese Opera and other Chinese theater.
The front of the gong is distinctly forward from the outer rim of the gong. It is almost like two gongs in one, a front gong and a bigger back gong: two distinct tones tied together. This connection creates an ascending or descending sound. Often called “pitch-bending”, this up or down bend accelerates as the gong goes from one note to another, making the Opera Gongs a special experience.
The 10" Atlantis Gong is a reminder of the power of the sea and the magic that is found there. Sea Salt is cleansing, and it's also a key ingredient in the metallurgy of this unique gong. It holds a clear tone with unexpected swaths of overtones in the crash.

The 10" Atlantis Chau Gong mixes the classic look and feel of the traditional Chau gong with mystique and depth of our exclusive Atlantis gong.
The science of metallurgy and the art of the gongmaker combine to create a gong with differing coloration and varying pockets of harmonics throughout the gong. The classic lathing pattern brings balance and control to the overall sound, making this gong something special that's a must-have for sound alchemists, therapists, healers and musicians.

The 10" Pasi Gong is fully lathed like a Wind gong, but it has a rim and slightly thicker metal, adding depth and clarity. It doesn't crash quite as loud as a Wind gong, but it still has plenty of brightness and splash.
The 10" Shiny White Bao Gong is slightly different from our other lathed, Golden Bao Gongs. These gongs were originally hand-tuned, but they have since deviated from their original, perfect tuning. They sound amazing, like any of our untuned Bao Gongs, and they have a slightly different design from the rest of them.
The Sun Gong, what we at Gongs Unlimited call the Solar Flare Gong, is a less traditional Chinese Gong than some of the other styles. It’s a more recent design created by Chinese gong makers and is available to all gong sellers, so we felt compelled to put it in the Traditional section. It is basically a Wind Gong, but with concentric bands of lathed and unlathed circles. The unlathed parts control the crash and splash, less than a Wind Gong. The rings concentrate the tones and it does not open up sound-wise like a fully lathed gong.
