Deagan Parsifal Bells "New Style Roundtop"

Deagan "Roundtop Parsifal Bells" are the latest and greatest improvement in the way of Orchestra bells. Deagan regular Parsifal bells have been on the market for some time, and have met with phenomenal success everywhere, and since the incorporation of Roundtop Bars with Parsifal Bells we believe that we can conscientiously offer to the professional drummer a bell which is without a peer.

Deagan "Roundtop Parsifal Bells" are absolutely without over-tones or counter harmonics, and when a bar is struck you hear nothing but the pure tone of the bell. No jingling or disagreeable overtones.

Deagan "New Style Roundtop Parsifal Bells" can be had either mounted in case with resonators or on floor rack with resonators, as illustrated herewith. The resonators over which the bars are mounted are the latest style patented resonator, which add greatly to the volume as well as sweetness of the tone of the bell.

Parsifal bells are loud enough for the largest band (you simply cannot drown them out) when played with ordinary hammers, and when played with soft hammers they are an ideal accompaniment for songs, etc.

We claim for Deagan Parsifal Bells the following points of excellence:

The finest and purest tone of any bell in the world.

Absolute perfect tuning.

Finest possible workmanship, combined with most handsome appearance.

No reflected light, as with flat-top bars. Roundtop bars do not blind your eyes.

Easy to play.
