Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A 36-inch orchestral bass drum head with a center reinforcement dot. For concert bass drums in ensemble, pit, and large hall settings.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Concert bass drum in orchestra, wind ensemble, or marching pit
- Players needing a deep, low roll that carries in a hall
- Replacing a worn head on a large concert bass drum
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Drum set players — a kick pedal head this is not
- Anyone with a drum smaller than 36 inches
- Situations needing tight, dry attack rather than long decay
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
Power Center dot
A reinforced patch at the strike zone. It adds durability where the mallet lands and focuses the attack.
Detail 03
Orchestral bass design
Tuned low and loose for a broad, sustaining tone, unlike a kick head built for pedal attack.
Detail 04
Single head, not a pair
Concert bass drums have two heads. Replacing only one leaves you with a mismatched batter and resonant side.
Detail 05
Large diameter
Bigger heads take longer to seat and need more careful cross-tensioning to avoid wrinkles.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Confirm your drum measures 36 inches across the head, not the hoop.
- 02One head only. Buy two if you're replacing both sides.
- 03Plan on a slow, even tuning pass — a head this size settles over days.
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will this work on a bass drum in my kit?
No. It's sized and built for a 36" concert bass drum. Standard kit kicks are 18 to 26 inches and use different heads.
02What does the Power Center dot do?
It reinforces the spot where the mallet strikes, extending head life and adding some focus to the attack without muffling the whole drum.
03Which side does it go on?
It's designed as the batter, or struck, side. That's where the center dot matters.
04Do I get both heads for this price?
No. This is a single head.
