Frequently asked questions
Can I use the gong mallet for drums or other percussion?
No. The SABIAN Gong Mallet is specifically designed for gongs and tam tams. It is not suitable for drumsticks or pitched percussion instruments.
What size gongs does the Large Gong Mallet work best with?
The mallet is recommended for gongs 40 inches or larger. Its 4.25-inch yarn-wrapped head and 19.5-inch length are engineered to deliver full resonance from substantial instruments.
How much can the SABIAN 360 Stick Bag hold?
The bag has four separate interior compartments for sticks and four exterior pockets for mallets, brushes, and accessories. Exact capacity depends on stick quantity and thickness, but it's designed for practical daily and touring use.
Are these products compatible—can I store the gong mallet in the stick bag?
While the 19.5-inch gong mallet could physically fit in the 18-inch closed stick bag, the stick bag is purpose-built for drumsticks and drum accessories, not mallets designed for gongs.
