Disc Bell & Anvil Gong Sound Plates
Black Swamp Sound Plates are a series of rectangular and circular steel idiophones that produce either bell or anvil like tones. These Anvil Gongs and Disc Bells can be suspended, mounted on a cymbal stand or laid flat on a trap table to produce a variety of color, rhythm or sizzle effects using the included rivets.
