TreeworksTre35 Aluminum Classic Chimes
1/2
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Aluminum bar chime from Treeworks' Classic line. For drummers and percussionists who want a bright shimmer wash for transitions, cues and studio color.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Drummers marking song transitions and fills on a live kit
- Studio overdubs adding shimmer to choruses and intros
- Worship, theater and orchestral percussion setups needing a stock chime
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players wanting a dark, short-decay chime — aluminum rings bright and long
- Tight stage rigs with no free stand or clamp space
- Anyone spending under $100 on a first chime
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
Natural finish
Raw metal, no coating to chip or flake. It will pick up fingerprints and dull slightly with handling.
Detail 03
Treeworks Classic series
Treeworks' standard-length chime rather than a mini or wind-chime size, so it covers a full sweep in one pass.
Detail 04
$149.99
Mid-tier pricing for a chime. You're paying for bar consistency and sustain rather than a wider bar count.
Detail 05
Bar chime format
Bars hang from a rail and are played by dragging a finger or mallet across, not struck individually.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01No stand or clamp is part of this — plan a mount or mic stand adapter
- 02Long sustain means you need a hand or damper ready to stop it
- 03Hang it clear of cymbals so bars don't clatter against them mid-song
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Does this come with a stand or mount?
No. It's the chime itself. You'll need a clamp, arm or stand to hang it at playing height, or hold it by the rail.
02Aluminum or brass — what's the difference?
Aluminum is brighter with longer, glassier sustain. Brass reads darker and decays sooner. For shimmer washes and transitions, aluminum is the usual pick.
03How do I stop it ringing?
Damp the bars with your palm or forearm. Nothing on the chime itself cuts the sustain, so muting is a hand technique.
04Is it loud enough for a live kit?
Yes for most stages. In a loud band it still benefits from a mic or the house PA, since the sustain sits above the drums but isn't powerful.
