...This product is damn near identical to one from a maker who charges $490 for it...Both demo videos sound the same, but this one is at a fraction of that cost at $60-bucks. It has lovely bell-like tones that go on forever, and can be played with supplied mallets or with your hands. The construction is very good, and this drum is rather heavy, so the steel gauge is thick, giving it that great tone. It arrived well-packaged and on time...so I would buy from this supplier again in a heartbeat!
