Detail 01

Two films with a damping ring between them. Sustain drops and attack shortens without stuffing the drum full of blankets.

RemoEbony Series Pinstripe Bass Drum Head 22 in.
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A 22-inch two-ply black bass drum head. Short, controlled attack out of the box, for players who'd otherwise pack the drum with muffling.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Kick drums that need a tight thud without pillows inside
- Loud stages where a ringy kick turns into mud
- Hard hitters who wear through thinner kick heads fast
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Bass drums that aren't 22 inches — size must match the shell
- Players who want an open, resonant kick with long sustain
- Anyone wanting a built-in felt strip or foam damping ring
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
Ebony black film
Opaque black finish that matches black hardware and hides beater marks. Tone comes from the plies, not the color.
Detail 03
22 in.
Matches a 22-inch shell. Measure the shell diameter itself, not the old head's hoop, before ordering.
Detail 04
Two-ply thickness
More film under the beater, so it pits and dents slower than a single-ply head under a hard foot.
Detail 05
Price is per head
This covers one side of the drum. Doing batter and front together means buying two heads.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Head only — no tension rods, claws, hoop, or tuning key
- 02Two-ply already damps heavily; pull out pillows and gels before adding more
- 03Tension every rod evenly and let it settle before judging the sound
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Batter side or front head?
Two-ply film is what you want under the beater. Front resonant heads are typically thinner, so most drummers use this on the batter side.
02Do I still need muffling inside the drum?
Usually less of it. The damping between the plies already cuts ring, so try it bare first and add a small pillow only if it's still too open.
03Will it fit a 22-inch bass drum?
Yes. Head size matches shell diameter, so a 22-inch shell takes a 22-inch head. Measure the shell if you're unsure of your drum's size.
04How is this different from a clear Pinstripe?
The two-ply construction is the same. The difference is the opaque black film — a cosmetic choice that matches black hardware and hides beater marks.
