Overseas ConnectionGhana Double Gonkogwe Bell With Stick Black 14 in.
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A 14-inch double bell in black with a beater included. For percussionists who need two fixed pitches for timeline patterns in one hand.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Holding a bell timeline over hand drums or a full ensemble
- Drum circles needing a cutting, non-drum voice
- Percussion classes teaching two-tone bell patterns
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players wanting a tuned or adjustable pitch
- Quiet acoustic settings; metal bells cut hard and do not play soft easily
- Anyone needing a mountable bell for a drum kit out of the box
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
14 in. overall
Full-size hand-held bell. Long enough to grip below the bells so your hand does not choke the ring.
Detail 03
Stick included
The beater comes with it, so you have a matched striker rather than guessing at a substitute.
Detail 04
Metal construction
Loud and bright with a long decay. Damping with a finger or palm is how you shorten notes.
Detail 05
Held, not mounted
No clamp or bracket. It is played hand-held, which lets you angle it toward or away from a mic.
Detail 06
Black finish
Painted rather than raw metal, so it resists fingerprints but can chip where the beater strikes repeatedly.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01No mount, clamp, or stand included; this is hand-held
- 02Repeated striking will wear the finish at the contact points
- 03Very loud in small rooms; plan on damping technique or distance from mics
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Does it come with the beater?
Yes, the stick is included.
02Can I mount it on a drum kit?
Not as sold. There is no bracket or clamp included, so it is designed to be hand-held.
03What are the two bells for?
The larger bell gives a lower pitch, the smaller a higher one. Alternating them is how bell timeline patterns are played.
04How do I stop it from ringing so long?
Grip below the bells and damp with a finger or the heel of your hand right after the strike.
