Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A 15-inch clear Genera resonant head for the bottom side of a 15-inch drum. For drummers replacing a worn bottom head on a larger tom or deep snare.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Bottom side of a 15-inch tom or large-format drum
- Restoring sustain on a drum with a dented resonant head
- Keeping a see-through look for inside miking
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Batter side duty under sticks and rimshots
- Drums that measure anything other than 15 inches
- Anyone who wants an opaque head hiding the shell interior
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
15 in. size
An uncommon diameter. Confirm the shell measures 15 inches before ordering, since 14 and 16 are far more common.
Detail 03
Clear film
See-through, so the shell interior and any internal mic stay visible. Reads brighter and more open than a coated head.
Detail 04
One head per drum
This is the bottom only. A worn batter head on top will still dominate the sound.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Measure across the bare shell, edge to edge, before committing to 15 inches
- 02Hoop, tension rods and drum key are not included
- 03Seat the head and detune in a star pattern to keep tension even
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Is this the top or bottom head?
Bottom. It is a resonant head, meant to sit on the underside of the drum while a batter head takes the stick hits.
02Will it fit a 14-inch drum?
No. Head size must match shell diameter. A 15-inch head will not tension correctly on a 14-inch drum.
03Clear or coated for the bottom?
Clear is the usual choice for resonant heads. It stays more open and lets more sustain through than a coated bottom.
04How do I measure my drum?
Take the old head off and measure straight across the top of the bare shell, edge to edge. That number is the head size you order.
