Review: Very "gongy bell" like sound when played inverted. Not a typical "bell" ring style sound. If you strike the side of the bell, as you would play a ride's bell, it gives off a massive, deep, loud ping! You can use the tiny edge to ride this for an amazing, tight, loud, sharp ride sound. This is a nice, universal, multi accent/chime that should fit nicely into any set up. This is basically a "mega bell ride" without the ride attached. Play the side of the bell, and you get a bell ride sound, but even better! This again, is not a typical bell sound (as in accent), but rather a ride bell sound. Very original accent.
