Strong match

Who this is for

  • Re-heading a 20 in. bass drum that's dented or losing tone
  • Kits where the kick is the visual centerpiece and needs black
  • Smaller 20 in. kicks used for gigging and tighter stages

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • 22 in. or 18 in. kicks — bass heads don't stretch across sizes
  • Toms or snares; this is bass drum diameter only
  • Anyone wanting a pre-printed logo head for the front

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

20 in.

Fits a 20-inch bass drum shell. Measure the shell diameter, not the hoop or the outer wrap.

Detail 02

Bass drum head

Larger collar and hoop diameter than tom heads. It will not adapt to a floor tom of any size.

Detail 03

Black finish

Hides the shell interior and pedal beater marks show less than on a white head.

Detail 04

$66.99

Roughly double a tom head. Bass heads are large and get replaced far less often, so cost per year is low.

Detail 05

Single head

Covers one side of the kick. A front-and-back replacement means buying two.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Confirm your kick is 20 in. across the shell before ordering — sizing is unforgiving
  2. 02Sold as one head; the opposite side of the kick is a separate purchase
  3. 03Removing a bass drum hoop means loosening every tension rod, so allow real time

Product questions

Before you decide

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

01Will this fit a 22 inch bass drum?

No. Bass drum heads are diameter-specific with no adjustment range. A 22 in. kick needs a 22 in. head.

02Is this the batter side or the front 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.

03Does it come with a port hole cut?

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.

04How often should a kick head be replaced?

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.
