Early 1900's set of four tuned cowbells in a telescoping arrangement; the vintage cowbells are tuned to a major triad. The largest bell is 6" long by 4 3/4" wide at the mouth and the smallest bell is roughly half that size at 3" long x 2 1/2" wide at the mouth. The entire set can be mounted to the bass drum hoop, on a trap table, or mounting post using a standard two pronged woodblock holder. These tuned cowbell sets were a standard feature of early 20th century drum outfits. They came in various configurations this being the most compact. The bells sounds great and look great mounted on the bass drum.
