EvansEQ Double Bass Drum Patch - Black
1/3
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A stick-on wear patch for the bass drum head, shaped for two beaters. Buy it if you run a double pedal and keep punching through heads.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Double pedal players wearing a hole in the batter head
- Protecting a fresh bass head before the first gig
- Cheap insurance on a kit that gets played hard
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Single pedal players — a single patch covers less area for less
- Anyone chasing a tone change; this is protection, not sound
- Heads already dented or cracked at the impact point
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 02
Black finish
Disappears against a black or clear head; it will read as a dark spot on white coated heads.
Detail 03
Patch, not a head
It mounts onto the head you already have. It does nothing on its own.
Detail 04
$7.95
Roughly a tenth of a bass drum head. Replacing the patch is the cheap half of the maintenance cycle.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01One patch, no head included
- 02Wipe the strike area clean and dry before applying or it lifts
- 03Position it under both beaters before pressing down — it does not reposition well
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Does this change the sound of my bass drum?
Slightly. Any patch adds mass at the impact point, which tightens the attack a little and takes off some ring. Most players find the difference small compared to the added head life.
02Can I use it with a single pedal?
Yes. The patch is wider than one beater needs, so you cover more area than required. A single-beater patch would be cheaper if you never plan to run doubles.
03Will it work with felt, wood, and plastic beaters?
Yes. Harder beater surfaces are exactly what chews through a bare head, so plastic and wood benefit most.
04How long does one patch last?
Depends entirely on how hard and how often you play. Check it when you change heads and replace it any time the surface has worn through to the head.
