Strong match

Who this is for

  • Kits running two rack toms plus a 16 inch floor tom
  • Standard rock configurations rather than fusion four-tom setups
  • Refreshing an entire tom section without buying heads individually

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Kits with a third rack tom at 13 or 14 inches
  • Anyone needing snare or bass drum heads
  • Players with an 18 inch floor tom

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

10/12/16 inch sizing

Two small rack toms and one floor tom. Sizes refer to shell diameter, so tom depth does not matter.

Detail 02

Includes a 16 inch head

Floor tom heads cost more than rack sizes, which is why this pack runs three dollars above the 10/12/13 version.

Detail 03

Sold as a 3-pack

Under sixteen dollars per head, below what the 16 inch alone typically costs when bought on its own.

Detail 04

All three from the Vintage Emperor line

Rack and floor toms stay consistent with each other instead of one drum sitting oddly against the rest.

Detail 05

Universal head sizing

Fits any brand of shell at those diameters. The heads do not need to match your kit maker.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Check your floor tom is 16 inches; 14 and 18 inch floor toms are both common
  2. 02A drum key is required for the swap and is not included
  3. 03This covers the batter side of three drums, not the resonant heads underneath

Product questions

Before you decide

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

01Which pack should I get, 10/12/13 or 10/12/16?

Depends on your third drum. Take 10/12/16 if you have a floor tom at 16 inches, 10/12/13 if your third tom is a rack tom.

02Will the 16 inch head fit a 16 inch bass drum?

Physically the diameter matches, but bass drum heads are built differently. This is a tom pack and is intended for tom shells.

03Do these come with the bottom heads?

No. Three heads total, one per drum. Resonant heads for the underside are bought separately.

04Can I mix these with other heads on the same kit?

Yes, nothing stops you. Toms carrying a different head line will just behave differently from these three.
