Strong match

  • Replacing a split or dented head on an oversized drum
  • Players who already own a 30 inch shell

When to look elsewhere

  • Standard drum kits, where bass drums run 18 to 26 inches
  • Anyone unsure of their exact shell diameter
  • Drummers shopping for tom or snare heads

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

30 inch diameter

Sized for large concert-style bass drums, not kit sizes. No adjustment range if the shell differs.

Detail 02

Sold as one head

A drum needs two. Budget twice this if you are replacing both sides.

Detail 03

Around $130

Large heads cost far more than kit sizes, so tuning and seating care pays off.

Detail 04

Evans hoop

Aluminum-style channel seats evenly on wide shells, which matters at this diameter.

Detail 05

Head only

Nothing else in the box. Hoops, tension rods and lugs stay with your drum.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Measure the shell across the top, not the counterhoop, before ordering.
  2. 02Large heads need slow, even tensioning in a star pattern to seat flat.
  3. 03Head only. No drum key, hardware or carrying case included.

Product questions

Before you decide

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

01Will this fit my bass drum?

Only a drum with a 30 inch shell diameter. Measure across the shell itself, ignoring the wooden or metal counterhoop.

02Is this for a drum kit?

No. Kit bass drums typically run 18 to 26 inches. This size belongs to large concert-style drums.

03Do I get two heads?

One head. Replacing both the batter and resonant side means buying two.

04Can I trim it to fit a smaller drum?

No. The hoop is bonded to the film and sets the diameter. Buy the size that matches your shell.
