Gongs are often played by striking the middle of the plate with a felt, leather or rubber-covered mallet. This produces a sound corresponding to the characteristics of the gong, which may have a specific identifiable pitch or may have a broad spectrum of pitch. Gongs usually have a shallow or deep rim, but rimless gongs also occur. Gongs have been made with or without a central ridge. The first gongs are known to have been Chinese and were made of bronze.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNote: This old Gong is a one-off piece that has been used a lot.
