Product questions
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
Hazy film is translucent and lightly textured, which takes some edge off the top end for a warmer, rounder tone. Clear film is brighter with more attack and longer sustain.
No. Timpani heads are sized to the drum. A 25-inch head only fits a bowl that calls for 25 inches — there's no adjustment range.
The collar is deeper than a standard head's. That extra skirt lets the head seat over the timpani bowl and be pulled down evenly during tensioning.
A tuning key or wrench matching your drum's tension rods. It isn't included, and rod sizes differ between timpani makers.
