Strong match

Who this is for

  • Rehearsal and practice kits that eat through heads
  • Drummers who want a drier, less ringy tom
  • Brush work, where a textured surface is required

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Players wanting bright, open, wide-open tom sustain
  • Anyone with a 12- or 14-inch tom — size is fixed
  • Bass drum or snare-side replacement

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.

Aquarian Texture Coated Response 2 Drumhead 13 in. construction detail

Detail 01

13 in.

Matches the shell diameter, not the hoop or the depth. A 13-inch head only fits a 13-inch tom.

Detail 02

Coated surface

The texture damps some high overtones, so the tom reads warmer and shorter than a clear head.

Detail 03

Coated, not clear

Brushes have something to grab. Clear heads are nearly silent under brushes.

Detail 04

Tom head

Built for tom tuning ranges. Not a substitute for a snare-side head, which is far thinner.

Detail 05

$32.99 single head

This is one head, not a pack. A three-tom kit needs three of the correct sizes.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01One head only — no drum key, no hoop, no batter/resonant pair
  2. 02Measure the shell diameter yourself; head sizes are not marked on drums
  3. 03Expect to retune over the first day as the head settles

Product questions

Before you decide

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

01Will this fit my 13 inch tom?

Yes, if the shell measures 13 inches across. Drumhead sizing follows shell diameter, so depth does not matter.

02Is this a batter or resonant head?

It is a tom head intended for the batter side, the one you hit. Resonant sides use thinner heads.

03Coated or clear — which should I get?

Coated runs warmer with less ring and works with brushes. Clear is brighter with longer sustain. This one is coated.

04Does one purchase cover a whole kit?

No. This is a single 13-inch head. Each tom needs its own head in its own size.
