About Cowbells


Do you have a fever for more cowbell? At Sweetwater, we totally get it. Whether you love to play metal or are more into Latin beats, cowbells complement a variety of music styles and will prove to be a beloved addition to your set. Here's the lowdown on what to look for in choosing your 'bells.



History of the Cowbell


The cowbell concept is simple. But in practice, cowbells today come in numerous materials, shapes, and sizes, and each bell makes a unique sound. Therefore, it's important to put some time and consideration into your next cowbell purchase.


If you are into Latin music, go for the clear tones of one of our Latin percussion rock or salsa cha-cha cowbells. These provide a lively sound that is perfect for this genre of music. If you want a more muffled tone, go for the handheld bell, whereas if you want a resonant sound, stand-mounted cowbells are the answer. When choosing a cowbell, remember your specific genre to ensure the instrument perfectly complements your established sound.



Why Invest in a Cowbell?


Are you looking for a sound that's new and different? Then you'll love the many styles of cowbells available at Sweetwater. Larger cowbells deliver a raw and unrefined punch that expands the range of your percussion setup, whether you're kicking off a clave or embellishing quarter-note rhythms. On the other hand, if you're looking for portability, grab one of our smaller cowbells. These bells are versatile and can be played with sticks, mallets, or even your hands and fingers. We also carry cowbells with integrated jingles, which add further sophistication to your sound.



How to Place Your Cowbell


Many of our cowbells offer flexible placement options. With multiple playing surfaces, you can strike them on the side, the edge, or a corner, all yielding different tones. And with adjustable wing nut designs, you can be sure your bell will provide you with the positioning freedom you need for optimal performance. With sturdy, stable hardware, you can be sure your cowbell won't budge, even under the hardest strike.



Choosing the Right Cowbell


Cowbell Aesthetic


When selecting your cowbell, keep your aesthetic style in mind. Our selection includes simple bells with a single-color finish, as well as bells that feature a variety of graphic designs and images. Maybe a skull-graphic bell is more your style than a cowbell with a simple black or bronze finish; the choice is yours.



Cowbell Materials and Finishes


Let's talk about materials. Most of our cowbells are made from high-quality, durable steel. This gives them a fantastic tone and projection. It also helps ensure they'll last a long time, even under severe thrashing. Our cowbells allow you to play and let your energy flow freely, without ever having to worry about damaging your bell. And for added protection, check out our selection of bells that are powder coated.
