GONG!

Letter a roommate of mine sent to a gong manufacturer...

Hello,

Three roommates and myself have always envisioned a gong in our abode, centrally located and for the purpose of announcing to the rest of the house a successful conquest in the bedroom. Started as a joke and has now become a serious desire. We have recently moved into our new house which just happens to have a built in "shelf" in the corner made between 3 bedrooms. It's perfect for a gong. Now we need the largest and loudest gong, for the least amount of money that will fit comfortably in that space. (All 4 of us are either 5th year undergrad or master's students at Virginia Tech, so money isn't exactly freely flowing).

If I gave you the measurements and/or a picture of the proposed space, do you think you could suggest a few gongs that might fit our requirements? If so, you tell me the best way to describe it to you or send you a picture and I'll jump right on it.

Manufacturer's response...

I am pleased to hear that a gong may be used for such a noble porpoise.

Yep. Give me the size of the space - because the Gong stand takes up space too.LXWxD will help.

And the general size the room. Picture is okay too for room.But I need measurements of shelf if that is where you plan it to go.

That will help me suggest the best gong for the money.

Thanks,


EPIC...
