SABIAN 28" Zodiac Gong

SABIAN 28" Zodiac Gong

The 28" Zodiac Gong delivers the fastest response time of any gong in the SABIAN lineup, making it exceptionally articulate and immediate under the mallet. Its special nickel-silver alloy construction produces a distinctive splashy character with a warm, focused fundamental that cuts through ensemble textures without sacrificing musicality. This size suits medium to large ensembles, orchestras, and percussion setups where clarity and quick attack are essential.

Tone & Acoustic Response

Built from special nickel-silver alloy, this gong generates a warm, focused fundamental paired with rich, sustaining overtones. The moderate sustain and fast response time—the quickest of any SABIAN gong—allow for clean articulation and rapid decay, ideal for rhythmic passages, orchestral hits, and ensemble settings where definition matters.

Design & Build

The 28-inch diameter positions this gong as a mid-to-large format instrument suitable for symphony orchestras, chamber ensembles, and professional studios. The gong arrives with a gong cord for secure mounting and handling, and is protected by SABIAN's Two-Year Warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.
