YOU MUST TRY THIS! IT SOUNDS OUT OF THIS WORLD. Sound is deep, loud and full of beautifully mixed overtones. You can't imagine how powerful it sounds. The only way to feel it is to experience it. Its a sound which fills all your brain even though the instrument is so small! Perfect for sound seekers and people who look for deep and meditative sound and don't want to spend lots of money for big gong. Instrument development by me so in case you have any questions feel free to ask! HOW TO PLAY? 1. Place string loops on your fingers. 2. Lean forward. The hanging string should be free of touch. 3. Hit the Pocket Gong against an object. Any reachable surface works for it so go around the room and feel the differences within each surface! It works by simple physics- sound(more exact- vibrations) easier travel through hard material than soft gas. Metal part is vibrating and the string is passing the vibration directly to your ears.
