What matters in use
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 01
Single-ply, medium thickness. Open tone with long sustain and easy stick response, but less dent resistance.
Detail 02
Fits a 10-inch tom only. Head size is the drum shell diameter, not the rim measurement.
Detail 03
Black film damps a touch of high overtone versus clear, so attack reads slightly warmer.
Detail 04
This is the top head you strike. The bottom resonant head is a separate purchase.
Final check
Product questions
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
It's a batter head, meant for the top of the tom where you strike it. Resonant bottom heads are sold separately.
It fits a 10-inch drum, but it's built as a tom head. Snare batters are usually a different construction, so most players choose a dedicated snare head.
Slightly. The ebony film trims some of the highest overtones compared to a clear head of the same weight. The overall tone stays open and resonant.
Single-ply heads dent and lose pitch stability faster than two-ply under hard playing. Light to moderate players get much longer life.
