Strong match

Who this is for

  • Rebuilding a 22-inch kick with a fresh front head
  • Players who want a dark front head look on stage
  • Replacing a front head that has been ported badly

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Anyone needing the batter head you actually strike
  • Kicks that are 20, 24 or any size other than 22
  • Drummers who want a pre-cut port hole ready to mic

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 01

Resonant head

This goes on the front of the kick. It is not the head your beater hits.

Detail 02

22 inch

Fits a 22-inch bass drum shell only. Measure the shell diameter before ordering.

Detail 03

Black film

Cosmetic on stage, and it hides the inside of the drum better than a white head under lights.

Detail 04

Force II construction

Two-ply build on the front head. Controls sustain and gives a shorter, tighter kick note.

Detail 05

No port hole

It arrives solid. Cutting a mic port is a one-way modification you do yourself.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Front head only — batter head, muffling pillow and port ring are separate
  2. 02Cutting a port for a mic is permanent; measure and use a proper cutter
  3. 03Tune the front head low and even, then adjust for the amount of ring you want

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Is this the head I hit with the pedal?

No. This is the resonant front head. The batter head is a different head made for beater impact.

02Does it come with a hole for a microphone?

No, it comes solid. You cut the port yourself, usually off-center and around four to five inches across.

03Can I use it without cutting a port?

Yes. A solid front head gives more resonance and low end, but you will have to mic the kick from the front outside.

04Will it fit a 22-inch bass drum from any brand?

Yes. Bass drum sizing is standard, so a 22-inch head fits a 22-inch shell regardless of who made the kit.
