Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A 15-inch black resonant head for the bottom side of a tom. Replacement part for drummers rebuilding a kit's low end.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Replacing a torn or dented bottom head on a 15-inch tom
- Matching a black-out kit look on the resonant side
- Restoring tom sustain after years on stock heads
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Drummers needing a batter head — this goes on the bottom
- Any tom that is not 15 inches
- Anyone wanting a full kit's worth in one purchase
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.
Head size matches the drum's shell diameter, not the rim. Measure the shell across the top before ordering.
Detail 03
Black finish
Opaque film. You lose the ability to see through to check the inside of the shell when tuning.
Detail 04
Single head, not a pack
Covers one drum side. A three-tom kit needs three separate resonant heads in the right sizes.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Confirm your tom measures 15 inches across the shell, not the hoop
- 02Batter head is sold separately — this only covers the bottom
- 03You will need a drum key to seat and tune it
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Can I use this as a batter head?
No. Resonant heads are made for the bottom of the drum and are not built to take stick impact. Use a batter head on top.
02Does it come with a hoop or lugs?
No. This is the head only. It drops into the existing hoop and tension rods on your drum.
03What size drum does this fit?
A 15-inch tom. Measure the shell diameter across the top, edge to edge, ignoring the hoop.
04Will the black film change the sound versus clear?
The finish is a coating on the film. Tuning, head thickness and shell have far more effect on the tom's tone than color.
