Yes, this comes with gong stand and mallet. The 8 inch Chau Gong is exceptional in sound for its size. It is like the short man at the gym, who is muscular, nearly muscle bound, full of strength, compensating for his lack of inches in height, with inches in bicep, chest, calves, etc. His reaction to the reactions of other people about his height, is to prepare an armored shell to both protect himself as well as attack. His muscle size increased and hardened, it is similar to the turtle's shell. It allows him to fight back at larger predatory animals, who might seek to claim their spot at the top of the mound, they cannot bit him with their teeth and pierce through his muscles to the soft chewy innards. But it also allows him to attack, if necessary. When the shorter male spots an opening at salad bar, he can break through the line and capture macaroni salad before the other carb-loaders. It also allows him to hunt the elusive Giraffe women, who whilst they delicately nibble Acai and Honey off of Clif Energy Bar trees, can be surprised by the Shorter Muscular Man who leaps up from stool to juice bar, to hanging light, and then places a kiss upon their Giraffe lips. That is the power of the 8 inch chau Gong. It is a lot of metal and sound in a small gong. |
