During one of my songs, I was in need of a bell effect. When I looked at the prices of bells, I was beginning to wonder how important it was to me to have a particular sound. This is the little guy I found for a decent price. In addition to having a low cost, the sound is also very good.

In the end, I went back to the In my opinion, a better name would be Bel, which has no strange overtones and just sounds like a clear 'ping'.

Also, it is beneficial because it is portable and easily drained. In fact, it's nearly necessary. In case you are a posthardcore drummer and would like a bell ping before double cascading This bass-playing musician The breakdown of China and the United States.
I love the way this bell rings almost like a train in the air In our band (two full stacks and a vocalist), we have a sound that cuts through everything else we're doing. A metal breakdown would be a good introduction to it. It is still in good condition after over a month of heavy use. Only a few light scratches are visible.
