Detail 01
Bell tree (stacked graduated bells)
Bells rise in pitch up the shaft, so one drag produces a clear ascending or descending run, not a random wash.

LPHandheld Bell Tree with Striker
1/8
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A handheld bell tree with striker, for percussionists and studio players who need a rising or falling glissando cue on demand.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Studio dates needing a quick ascending shimmer over a chord change
- Orchestral and pit percussion where a single dramatic sweep is scored
- Percussionists working standing, away from a mounted rig
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Rhythmic or repeated parts — it is a one-gesture effect
- Drummers who want something clamped to a stand and always in reach
- Anyone who already owns bar chimes for the same job
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Handheld design
You hold it and play it. Fast to grab and put down, but it occupies a hand for the whole gesture.
Detail 03
Striker included
The rod comes with it, so the sound is right out of the box. Nothing else to buy to play it.
Detail 04
Natural finish
Refers to the shaft, not the bells. Cosmetic — it does not change the ring or decay.
Detail 05
$249.99 tier
Above novelty bell trees. Expect bells that stay evenly graduated in pitch instead of clustering or dulling.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Handheld means no stand or mount — you need a free hand to play it
- 02Bells ring on after the sweep; muting takes a deliberate move
- 03Loose bells can rattle in transit; pack it so nothing shifts
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01What is the difference between a bell tree and bar chimes?
A bell tree gives a defined pitch run up or down a stacked shaft. Bar chimes give a wider, less directional shimmer. The bell tree sounds more deliberate.
02Does it come with the striker?
Yes. The striker is part of the package, so nothing else is required to play it.
03Can I mount it on a stand?
This is the handheld version, built to be held and swept. If you want it clamped in a rig, look at a mounted bell tree instead.
04How do you play an ascending sweep?
Drag the striker from the largest bells up to the smallest in one continuous motion. Reverse the direction for a descending run.
