Detail 01
Black dot at the center
Extra film where the beater lands. Adds attack and focus while cutting some ring, and it outlives a plain head.

RemoControlled Sound Clear With Black Dot Bass Drum Head 28 in.
Sale
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A 28-inch clear bass drum head with a reinforcing black center dot. For oversized kicks that need attack and beater-spot durability.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Large vintage or concert-style kicks in the 28-inch range
- Players wanting a defined beater click, not a dead thud
- Kicks that get hit hard and wear through center patches
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Standard 20, 22 or 24 inch bass drums — wrong size
- Anyone chasing a fully muffled, pillow-dead kick sound
- Toms or snares; this is a bass drum head only
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
Clear film
Brighter and more open than a coated or opaque head, with more high-end attack and less natural warmth.
Detail 03
28 inch
An unusually large kick size. Confirm your drum measures 28 inches across before ordering, since most kits are 20 to 24.
Detail 04
Controlled Sound design
Some overtone control from the dot itself, but this is not a pre-muffled head. Expect some ring to manage.
Detail 05
Single head, one side
Covers the batter or front side only. A two-sided reskin means ordering twice.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Measure across the bare shell — 28 inch heads do not fit 26 inch drums
- 02No beater patch, muffling pillow or port ring included
- 03Large heads take longer to seat; retune after the first session
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Does the black dot replace a beater patch?
It reinforces the strike area and extends head life, but a separate impact patch still adds protection if you play hard with a hard beater.
02Can I use this as a front head?
Yes, though the dot's purpose is impact reinforcement. On the front it mainly adds a bit of attack focus and overtone control.
03Will it fit my 26-inch kick?
No. Bass drum heads must match drum diameter exactly. This one fits 28-inch drums only.
04Do I still need internal muffling?
Often yes. The dot tames some ring, but big kicks usually want a pillow or felt strip for a tight studio sound.
