A 22-inch white marching bass drum head from Evans, for replacing a worn head on a 22" marching bass drum.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Drumline players covering the smaller end of a bass line
  • Schools replacing heads across a graduated set of bass drums
  • Matching a white head look across an existing line

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Drum set kick drums — this is a marching head
  • Concert bass drums, which take different heads
  • Shells that are not 22 inches in diameter

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.

EVANS MX1 White Marching Bass Drum Head 22 in. construction detail

Detail 01

22 in. size

Diameter across the playing surface. In a bass line this sits toward the higher-pitched drums, not the bottom voice.

Detail 02

Marching bass head

Designed for a drum carried on its side and struck head-on with a mallet, on both faces.

Detail 03

White finish

Opaque white keeps a bass line visually uniform on the field and hides mallet marks.

Detail 04

MX1 model

A distinct Evans marching line from MX2. Keep both sides of a drum on the same model so they respond alike.

Detail 05

Single head

Both faces of a marching bass drum are played, so a complete rehead needs two.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01One head per order — buy two to do both sides
  2. 02No hardware included: no hoop, rods, or lugs
  3. 03Measure the shell diameter first; 22 and 24 inch heads are not interchangeable

Product questions

Before you decide

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

01Is this the same as the MX2?

No. MX1 and MX2 are separate Evans marching lines. Keep a single drum on one model so both sides match.

02How do I know if I need 22 or 24 inch?

Measure straight across the shell's playing surface. Marching bass drums are sized by diameter; depth is quoted separately.

03Can I put this on a bass drum in my kit?

It is built for marching bass drums, not kick drums. Use a dedicated bass drum batter head on a kit.

04What tools do I need to change it?

A drum key. Loosen the tension rods evenly, seat the new head, then tension in a star pattern to keep it even.
