What matters in use
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
Fits a 20-inch bass drum shell. Measure the shell diameter, not the hoop or the outer wrap.
Detail 02
Larger collar and hoop diameter than tom heads. It will not adapt to a floor tom of any size.
Detail 03
Hides the shell interior and pedal beater marks show less than on a white head.
Detail 04
Roughly double a tom head. Bass heads are large and get replaced far less often, so cost per year is low.
Detail 05
Covers one side of the kick. A front-and-back replacement means buying two.
Final check
Product questions
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
No. Bass drum heads are diameter-specific with no adjustment range. A 22 in. kick needs a 22 in. head.
It's a 20 in. bass drum head and seats on either side. Decide based on which side of your kick is worn or which look you want facing the audience.
If you want a ported front head, plan on either a head sold with a hole or cutting one yourself with a proper port ring. Don't freehand it.
Far less often than tom or snare heads. Replace when the beater has worn a soft spot, the film is dented, or tuning won't hold.
