Installation
These Agogo Bells are ready for immediate use. They can be played handheld using a traditional grip or mounted to a percussion rack or stand using standard mounting hardware (sold separately). Ensure the bells are securely fastened if mounting to prevent unwanted rattling or movement during high-energy performances.
Compatibility
The Latin Percussion Agogo Bells Large are compatible with most standard percussion mounting systems and clamps. They are designed for use with traditional percussion mallets or sticks, though the specific striker choice will affect the brightness and attack of the tone.
