Independent shopping perspective
Sized for a 26-inch bass drum, this Powerstroke 3 Fiberskyn Diplomat Felt Tone head combines the head and its felt-damping element in one installed piece. The felt strip is free-floating within the head and requires no glue or adhesive. That all-in-one arrangement carries a traditional bass-drum damping method into vintage and contemporary drum-set applications. Fiberskyn film gives this version its specialized appearance, while the 26-inch size makes fit confirmation essential.
