SABIAN 26″ Symphonic Gong
The SABIAN 26″ Symphonic Gong captures a full, resonant strike with substantial weight and presence that responds to both delicate mallets and bold attacks. This medium-heavy bronze gong sustains complex harmonic layers, making it an essential tool for orchestral work, meditation recordings, sound design, and studio production. The 26-inch diameter positions it as a substantial instrument that demands controlled technique and rewards precision placement in the mix.
Construction & Materials
Cast from B20 Bronze—the traditional alloy that defines professional gong tone—this instrument offers the durability and tonal complexity expected of SABIAN’s orchestral line. The medium-heavy weight classification ensures the gong has sufficient mass to produce deep, lingering sustain while remaining playable with standard mallets and strikers, translating to clear, articulate recording capture and flexible studio applications.
Physical Specifications
At 4.31 kg and measuring 26 inches in diameter, this gong works effectively in both isolated recording booths and larger tracking rooms where acoustic projection and decay time matter. The 5.08 cm thickness contributes to its tonal depth and sustain characteristics, delivering the harmonic complexity needed for layered production and post-production sound design.
