Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

A 22-inch smooth white bass drum head with a Crimplock collar. Marching bass replacement stock, not for a drum kit.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Replacing a head on a 22-inch marching bass drum
  • Drum lines standardizing head color across the bass section
  • Programs that need a head compatible with Crimplock hoops

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Drum set bass drums; the Crimplock collar will not fit
  • Marching basses of any diameter other than 22 inch
  • Players who want a printed logo or graphic head

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.

Remo Ambassador Smooth White Bass Head With Crimplock Collar White 22 in. construction detail

Detail 01

Crimplock collar

A molded collar made for Crimplock-style marching hoops. It will not seat on a standard drum set bass drum hoop.

Detail 02

22 in. size

Fits a 22-inch marching bass shell. Bass drums in a line run several sizes; check the specific drum.

Detail 03

Smooth white surface

Opaque white finish, used for a uniform look on the field. Takes stick and mallet marks visibly over a season.

Detail 04

Ambassador weight

Single-ply film. Open and responsive rather than heavily muffled, so the drum projects with sustain.

Detail 05

Single head

A marching bass drum uses two. Replacing both sides means buying two heads in this size.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Confirm your drum uses Crimplock hoops before ordering; standard hoops need a different head
  2. 02No hoop, tension rods, mallets, or internal muffling included
  3. 03Marching bass drums normally need matching heads on both sides

Product questions

Before you decide

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

01Will this work on my kick drum?

No. The Crimplock collar is designed for marching bass hoops and will not seat correctly on a standard drum set bass drum.

02How do I know if my drum is Crimplock?

Crimplock drums use a molded collar that locks into a channel in the hoop rather than a flat flesh hoop pulled by a standard rim.

03Is one head enough?

For one side only. A marching bass has a batter and a front head, so a full replacement takes two.

04Does the white surface affect the sound?

Very little. The single-ply weight is what shapes the tone. White is chosen for a consistent look across the section.
