SABIAN 6" Center Hammered Triangle vs SABIAN Large Economy Gong Stand
These are completely different products: the SABIAN Triangle is a pitched percussion instrument for melodic ensemble work, while the Large Economy Gong Stand is a hardware accessory for mounting large suspended gongs. Choose the triangle if you need a melodic percussion instrument; choose the stand if you already own a large gong and need reliable mounting hardware.
No sales tax on orders shipped outside California — total cost beats national retailers that charge sales tax in nearly every state.

Frequently asked questions
Can I use both of these products together?
No. The triangle is a handheld pitched percussion instrument you strike with a rod. The gong stand is hardware for mounting large suspended gongs. They serve different purposes and are not typically used in the same performance setup.
Which product is better for a beginner?
The triangle is marked as not ideal for beginner practice and requires intermediate to advanced skill. The gong stand is a passive hardware piece with no skill requirement—it simply holds a gong you already own. Neither is marketed specifically for beginners.
What size gongs does the stand fit?
The SABIAN Large Economy Gong Stand accommodates gongs from 26 inches to 40 inches in diameter. It is not suitable for smaller gongs outside that range.
What gauge bronze is the triangle made from?
The SABIAN 6" Center Hammered Triangle is constructed from heavier gauge B8 bronze with a 3/8" rod diameter, designed for enhanced projection and tonal clarity compared to lighter-gauge alternatives.
