RemoSmooth White Ambassador Bass Drum Head 26 in.
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A 26-inch smooth white Ambassador bass drum head. Single-ply, medium weight, for drummers replacing the front or batter head on a large kick.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Replacing a head on a 26-inch bass drum
- Drummers wanting an open, resonant kick with full sustain
- Anyone needing a plain white front head to take a logo or graphic
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players wanting a tight, dead, heavily muffled modern kick sound
- Anyone with a 22- or 24-inch kick — this will not fit
- Heavy hitters using it as a batter without added padding
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
Smooth white finish
Flat non-textured surface. Takes printed logos and artwork well, which is why it is common as a front head.
Detail 03
26 in. size
Fits 26-inch shells only. Measure the shell diameter, not across the hoop.
Detail 04
No port hole
Solid head. If you mic inside the drum, you will need to cut a port yourself or use it as the batter.
Detail 05
No built-in muffling
You supply the damping — a pillow, blanket, or external ring — if you want a shorter, drier note.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Solid head, no pre-cut port. Cutting one is a permanent modification
- 02One head only — the opposite side is a separate purchase
- 03A 26-inch head is heavy on tension; tune in small even increments
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Does this have a hole for a microphone?
No. It is a solid head. You would need to cut a port yourself with a proper hole cutter, or run the mic outside the drum.
02Can I use this as the batter head?
Yes, though a medium single-ply will wear faster than a thicker batter head under a hard beater. Many drummers use it on the front.
03Will it fit a 24-inch bass drum?
No. This is a 26-inch head and will not seat on a smaller shell.
04Do I need to muffle it?
Depends on the sound you want. On its own it is open with long sustain. A pillow or blanket inside shortens the note considerably.
