Strong match

Who this is for

  • Front head on a 24-inch bass drum
  • Drummers wanting less boom and more focus
  • Kits where the front head faces the audience and finish matters

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Use as a batter head, which is a different head
  • Drummers wanting a long, open, ringing bass note
  • Any bass drum that is not 24 inches

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 01

Resonant head

Goes on the front of the bass drum, the side you do not hit. The batter head on the pedal side is a separate purchase.

Detail 02

Powerstroke 3

An underlay ring around the edge damps overtones, so you get a shorter, tighter note with less muffling inside the drum.

Detail 03

Ebony finish

Black, and slightly thicker-sounding than a clear head. Also the front-facing head on most kits, so it is the one people see.

Detail 04

24 in.

Matches a 24-inch shell only. Bass drum heads are not adjustable, so the diameter has to be exact.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01No port hole is cut. Cutting one yourself needs a hole cutter and is permanent
  2. 02Head only. No hoop, claws, or tension rods included
  3. 03Bass drum resonant heads sit at low tension, just past wrinkle-free

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Can I use this as the batter head?

It is built for the resonant side. The batter head takes pedal impact and is a different head, so buy that one separately.

02Does it have a hole for a microphone?

No. It arrives solid. If you want a port for a mic or for a shorter note, you cut it yourself with a hole cutter.

03Will this reduce the ring on my bass drum?

Yes. The damping ring at the edge shortens the note compared to a plain single-ply head, so you often need less internal muffling.

04How tight should I tune it?

Low. Bring it up just until the wrinkles disappear, then adjust slightly for how much sustain you want.
