Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A bass drum-mounted bracket for hanging rack toms. For drummers converting a kit to bass drum mounting or replacing a broken Pearl bracket.
Strong match

- Mounting one or two rack toms off the bass drum shell
- Replacing a damaged or missing bracket on a Pearl kit
- Getting toms off a rack or cymbal stand
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Drummers who mount toms on stands and want fewer shell holes
- Kits from other brands without matching hole spacing
- Anyone wanting a complete tom arm and holder setup
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
Tom bracket, not a tom arm
This is the receiver on the drum. The arms that carry the toms are a separate part.
Detail 03
Pearl hardware
Sized around Pearl's own tom arm diameters and shell hole spacing. Cross-brand fit is not a given.
Detail 04
Shell-mounted design
Puts tom weight on the bass drum. Adds contact points that damp the bass drum slightly versus stand mounting.

Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Does this include the tom arms?
No. This is the bracket that mounts to the bass drum. Tom arms and the tom-side mounting hardware are bought separately.
02Will it fit a non-Pearl bass drum?
Only if the hole spacing matches and your tom arms fit Pearl's diameter. Check both before buying.
03How many toms will it hold?
It is built to carry rack toms off the bass drum. Confirm the arm count you need against the bracket you order.
04Do I have to drill my bass drum?
Only if there are no existing holes in the right spot. If you are replacing a Pearl bracket, the holes are usually already there.
