Simple smooth Thadobati with bright brassy patina and not even the faintest remaining etching. Active pulsing fairly deep fundamental tone matched in harmony by clear overtones. As the soundscape evolves the pulses change while the soundscape retains its textured quality. Premium harmony and very good longevity. Ok off the rim with leather, wood plays strongly both overtone and next level high. With overtones at A5, G#6, E7.
