Bought these bells to add a different type of sound/sauce to my percussion set up (congas,bongos etc). These are (in my opinion) the pros and the cons of these small but nice bells: 
 
Pros: 
Well Made, small size bells. 
The bells threads came white (not red as shown on the picture). No biggie since I felt that white blended better with my normal set up. 
Nice weight and feel since I played the bells with my hands NOT with my ankles. 
Great sound for recordings and/or acoustic settings (accents,effects,ambience) 
 
Cons: 
Don't expect a loud,cutting sound from these bells. It would get lost in the mix if used in a live non-mic'ed situation. 
If you're looking to add something different, with a great sound and just enough sweetness and sauciness, turn your eyes upon these item. 
It would not disappoint! 
 
P.S As always Thomann's service was superb,fast and reliable!
