here is their bass chimes look

They make all the way up to more normal sized chimes, which I guess I will start with those. I heard the regular bass chimes at a store the other day. Its amazing how clear and in tune they are.

haha- they arent 575 at the store, I thought they were in the 350 dollar range. Plus I was going to get the chromatic scale so I could use them as instruments.

That's gonna be dope though. Personally, I love chimes.

I was helping a friend move a while back and the house next to his apartment building had some wooden windchimes that sounded like a marimba. So nice...I wanted to grab them and run!

Those chimes would be a great retaliation against my subwoofer-lovin' neighbors.

Thanks for the heads-up. That place is right in my back yard and I didn't even know about them.

yeah bugger the chimes, where can I buy me a little wee fellah like that?
Perfect for the dog to play with, or you could tool him up with some minature combat kit & send him hunting fer mice n spiders n stuff (looks like he could do with a bit of toughening up first though).

[edit] the chimes look cool n'all though, wouldn't have space fer em here, though i've got me some nice likkle ones various places around the house. [/edit]

yeah the biguns are just impressive to look at, but I cant fit them either. They all sound fantastic tho and are tuned well.

Wow, those are great! Reminds me of a big temple bell I rang once; it sustained for a couple of full minutes after being struck.
