The 8" Chau Gong is like an early romance - full of passion and desire and with some good sustain and eventual decay with nice sonic memories. Except this gong you won't have to friend on Facebook. This gong has a solid and deep tone, radiant overtones, and ability to crash when needed…

It's just like that ELO song:
Can't Gong It out of My Head

Midnight on the water
I saw the ocean's daughter
Walking on sound waves she came
Staring as she gonged my name

And I can't gong it out of my head
No, I can't gong it out of my head
Now my old world is gong for dead
Cause I can't gong it out of my head

Breakdown on the gong stand
Can't gong, without my mallet
Morning don't gong here til night
Searching for her silver gong

The 8" Dark Star Gong from Gongs Unlimited is dark, but not too dark. Darkness... rich, smooth, textural darkness, piques your curiosity every day as you choke down your dark, black coffee.

"Too dark?" you wonder as you peer into the brooding, moody cave of wonder.

No, just dark enough, with rich dark tones, shimmering light at the heart of darkness: the Dark Star Gong from Gongs Unlimited.

The 8" Chocolate Drop Gong is a feisty, medium sized gong. It's sound has depth, but some brightness and sparkle. The depth comes from the rim and inner circle of "chocolate" - which is really where the gong was not lathed. The bright parts are where they lathe the gong, like a cymbal and take off the dark parts. The sparkle comes from the shiny part of the gong, for as it looks bright, it also sounds bright.

Bao Gongs, with their raised bump in the middle, known as a bell or nipple, is the Chinese version of other Southeast Asian gongs, those from Thailand, Vietnam and Java. The nipple, when struck, helps create a clear-tone. While Bao Gongs are not tuned, their notes are more obvious and clear than flat Chinese gongs.

The 8" Golden Bao Gong is a polished take on the Bao style. What is this bit of bronze? A bowl? Hat? A lost bit from one of Madonna's costumes? No, alas it is a lathed, polished Bao Gong, full of brightness and joy.

The Ma Gong is fully lathed with a more or less flat face. They are smaller in diameter and provide gentle bell-like tones. If a Ma Gong could grow up, it would become a White Gong.

The 8” Ma Gong beard of the djinns because, and I quote his djinniness, “I wanted to have a face only a Ma Gong could love.”

The 8" Mother Tesla Gong is designed specifically for Gongs Unlimited. It is an unlathed gong. 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.

The Mother Tesla Gong maintains a deeper tone. It doesn’t crash like a Wind Gong, or even a Chau. The gong can provide a deep tone without a splash/crash. It can get a laser like high note sometimes.

This gong is a great meditative healer.

The 8" Subatomic Gong is marvelous gong that can create marvelous tones and healing vibrations.

The Subatomic creates a mystic tone when struck, with complex overtones. Often, striking it in the different concentric rings will give you a slightly different tone each time, adding to the mystique of these gongs.

For those using it to heal, the Subatomic Gong is wonderful for helping face tough internal issues with aplomb. It helps move those darker energies out. These gongs will allow you to tap into your reserve of strength to heal and grow into a greater person.

The 8" Wind Gong is fully lathed and shiny, with no rim (it is flat on the edge). This design gives the Wind Gong its splashy celebratory tone when struck with a fast attack. The sound will build quickly, allowing you to spread your wings and soar on the winds of joy and wonder.

The Chinese Opera Gongs, including Opera, Tiger, Hand and Fong Gongs, are traditional Chinese gongs that 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 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.

Sure to bring a hand to help, to hold, to high-five.

The 9" CHESUI Gong lacks a rimmed edge. It is flat on the edge, so those bright shiny layers crash and splash. The darker, unlathed circles of the Solar Flare Gong provide reconnection keep the sound tighter, more grounded.

The 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" Chocolate Drop Gong has perplexed some of our customers.

They ask us, Is the middle of the Chocolate Drop Gong, really Chocolate? And we answer, Is Charlie Brown, really brown?

If you consider his general emotional mood, yes, Charlie is.

Hence, the center of a chocolate drop gong is as chocolate as you want it to be. Chocolate if you mean that magnanimous flavor burst that hits your tongue when you eat some good stuff. Chocolate if you mean that chemical - hormonal rush that hits your brain from eating it. Chocolate if you mean that sonic rush when you hear a female jazz singer hit a spectacular silky melody.

Yes, the Chocolate Drop is Chocolate.

The 10" Dark Star Gong is made only for Gongs Unlimited. It is a heavy beast of a gong. It is heavier than a Chau Gong, or other similar gongs of its size. And with this much bronze, you also hear deep deep tones.

While the thickness of metal keeps the Dark Star Gong deep in tone, the lathing of the bronze in the center, brings out an interesting musicality and flow.

In this way the Dark Star differs from the Mother Tesla Gong, which stays moody and crepuscular. The Dark Star is a gong that gives you an adventure in space.

And space time. Take a ride with it.

The 10" Lunar Flare Gong is named after the ring of brightness that appears around the moon in a photo. It embodies the eternal of Earth's only satellite, yet we know the flare only because of today's technology, which made it possible to capture this previously unseen and beautiful phenomenon. It has a deep sound, though not as sharp as its sister, the Solar Flare Gong. The rim focuses the sound, which lingers pleasantly. There's lightness with this gong, like the light from the moon that pierces the thick of night. Deep sound emanates and expands and transforms dark to light.

The 10" Opera Gong is extremely portable, which means it could be toted along while you are out strolling on the boulevard at rush hour. Give it a ring as a sort of siren's song to draw strangers into chatting, or toll it repeatedly to announce your position, allowing others to note your path and thus avoid collisions.

The pitch-bent fluctuating tone of the 10" Fong Gong can be used to alter your musings in the solo setting. Opening up paths your unconscious mind may have otherwise passed by. The dulcet yet cleansing tone of the gong also creates an expansive head-space in which your imagination can run wild.

Work it however you want it to work.

The Pasi Gong fits in the style of Chinese gongs that are smaller, fully lathed, with a more or less flat face. Pasi Gongs in all sizes are bright, happy gongs.

The 10" Pasi Gong is the perfect gong to add a surprising splash to you and your friend group.

Do you need to alert your posse of your presence? Perhaps you are not like Jesus, whose sparkling energy alerted his 12 core homies that he was near. Perhaps you are a pretty bubble of energy and want to wake people up to the fun. Whatever your reason, the shimmering splash livens up a room!

Gather round, one and all! Now is the time!

Solar Flares happen all the time and affect us in many ways. How we use the energy coming at us influences how it can move through or crash into our bodies.

The 10" Solar Flare Gong is the perfect tool for healing your space and balancing the changes that are moving through us. The dark, raw circles in cooperation with the bright, polished circles create sound of restraint and expression.

A bit moodier than the traditional Wind Gong, the Solar Flare bursts forth with a dark sparkle for cosmic balance.

To play is the way.
