This listing includes the gong, stand, and mallet!Gong Diameter: 26"Rambo Rimbaud Gong Stand Measurements:Width: 30"Height (Adjustable): 40” - 53"Depth of Feet: 30” Lower bar is about 13” from the floor*****The 26 Subatomic Gong:Subatomic particles of sound.Splashing around.Concentric circles guide and spin.When, oh when?!, will you hit that gong again.Dude.This is the effect of the Subatomic gong.You think you've heard a gong before, but when you hear the Subatomic gong it makes you wonder.How is that extra flavor created?Why would one extra lathed ring on the outside make such a difference?This gong is outside the box.It has the classic deep, but controlled crash like the Chau gong. But instead the sound vibrating through a dark rim, the sound flies, splashes, zips out of the shining lathed edge.Yes, the Subatomic gong has an edge.The Rambo Rimbaud Gong Stand:Rambo meets Rimbaud Fiercely Poetic Gong Stand!The truth, we have found in our existence, is that sometimes the simple, utilitarian, and dare we say, prosaic, has an innate poetry to it.Not to say anything plain, or cheap, is poetic.Certainly not if the object was designed, like many a tract home by many a developer, only with profit in mind.But these gong stands are simple, pure and strong. And when you are with them, you feel a passion for clean black lines, the way the pieces of this gong stand fit together in an unusual way. The way they show off the gong, rather than themselves.It is a poetry that is inextricably fused with the manufacture, the forging of the metal, the song of the design, that makes us contemplate the young poet Rimbaud meeting up the celluloid fleck of testosterone called Rambo.Would there be homoerotic conflagrations? Sparks flying? Or incomprehension and fear?Rimbaud, when he was done writing poetry, did run guns in North Africa, they say. And Stallone, does write the grunts that amble out, perhaps not iambically, from Rambo's mouth while he shoots guns in his movies.*****
