Review: This little one produces a clear, articulated tone without much trashy / exotic overtones. Although Wuhan doesn't offer gongs tuned to specific notes, this one would appear to be done just so. It's meant to be played hand-held, and an appropriate mallet is provided. It does seem to be thick for the size - 217 grams - which helps its defined sound.
