Paiste Gong Mallets

Paiste gong mallets are manufactured to Paiste’s specifications and designed specifically for use with their instruments. These are beautifully made mallets which will also play well with gongs from other manufacturers.

The sound and reaction of a Paiste Gong is largely determined by the size, weight and material a mallet is made of. All Paiste gong mallets listed here are in accordance with Paiste’s recommended usage. Of course, you may prefer to use alternative mallets or other objects to play a Paiste gong, but please be aware that using an inappropriate striking tool can cause damage and detuning to your instrument!

Having said that, don’t be afraid to experiment…
