Detail 01
Smooth surface
No coating texture, so it is brighter and more open than a coated head with a bit more attack.

RemoEmperor Smooth White Bass Drum Head 24 in.
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A 24-inch white bass drum head with a smooth, uncoated surface. For drummers replacing a head on a 24-inch kick.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Replacing a worn head on a 24-inch bass drum
- Rock and live playing where you need clear low-end punch
- Kits where you want an opaque white front instead of clear
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Anyone with a 20-, 22-, or 26-inch bass drum
- Players who want a coated texture or a ported front head
- Drummers chasing maximum open, ringing sustain
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
24 in.
Matches shell diameter, not the hoop. A 22-inch drum will not take it, and there is no adjustment.
Detail 03
White finish
Opaque rather than see-through. It hides the inside of the drum and takes a logo or lighting well.
Detail 04
Emperor series
A heavier build than Remo's thinnest lines, which means more durability and a shorter, more focused decay.
Detail 05
Bass drum head
Built for kick pedal impact. It is not interchangeable with a tom or snare head of the same diameter.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Measure the shell, not across the rims or hoops
- 02One head — a kick needs both batter and front
- 03No port hole; cutting one is on you
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Is this the batter side or the front head?
It works on either side of a 24-inch bass drum. On the batter side it takes pedal impact; on the front it gives you a plain white face.
02Does it come with a port hole?
No. It ships solid. If you want a mic port, you cut it yourself with a hole cutter, and that cut is permanent.
03Will it fit a 22-inch bass drum?
No. Bass drum heads are sized to shell diameter with no tolerance for a two-inch difference. Measure the shell itself before ordering.
04Do I still need muffling?
Probably some. A 24-inch head moves a lot of air, and most players add a pillow or felt strip to tighten the decay for recording or live use.
