Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Two-tone agogo bell, 11 inches, with a mounting clamp included. For percussionists who want a high-low bell pair fixed to a stand rather than hand-held.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Samba, bossa and Afro-Cuban patterns needing two pitches from one bell
  • Mounting to a timbale, conga or cymbal stand in a percussion rig
  • Drummers adding a two-pitch accent voice to a kit

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Players who want to hold and swing the bell freely while playing
  • Anyone needing a single-pitch cowbell voice
  • Setups with no stand or bar to clamp onto

Gon Bops Tumbao Series Agogo Bell with Clamp 11 in. construction detail

Detail 01

Agogo (double bell)

Two bells joined by a bow — one high, one low. You get a two-note pattern from a single instrument.

Detail 02

Clamp included

Mounts to a stand or rack tube without a separate accessory purchase, freeing your other hand.

Detail 03

11 in. overall

Mid-size for an agogo. Larger bodies push the pitch lower and give a longer ring than compact models.

Detail 04

Black finish

Coated surface rather than bare metal, so it stays dark and hides fingerprints under stage lights.

Detail 05

Clamp-mounted, not hand-held

Pitch bending by squeezing the bow is harder once mounted. You trade that for stability.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Stick or beater not included — you supply your own
  2. 02Clamp needs a stand or rack tube of compatible diameter to grip
  3. 03Mounted bells transmit vibration to the stand; snug the clamp to avoid rattle

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Does it come with a mount?

Yes. The clamp is included, so you can attach it to a stand or rack tube without buying anything extra.

02Can I play it hand-held instead?

You can remove it from the clamp and hold it by the bow, which is how agogos are traditionally played.

03What are the two bells for?

One is pitched higher, one lower. Alternating between them is the basis of most samba and Afro-Cuban agogo patterns.

04What do I strike it with?

A wood or metal stick. Nothing is included, so plan on a timbale stick or dedicated agogo beater.
