Sound Percussion LabsSPH11 Pro Standard Bass Drum Felt Beater
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A felt bass drum beater for a standard kick pedal. Replacement or spare for drummers who want a softer, less clicky attack.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Replacing a worn or lost beater on an existing kick pedal
- Drummers wanting rounder low end with less attack click
- Keeping a cheap spare in the stick bag
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players chasing a sharp, cutting click for metal
- Anyone needing a pedal — this is only the beater
- Drummers wanting a weighted or two-sided beater
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
Beater, not a pedal
It is the swinging striker that bolts into your existing pedal. The pedal itself is separate.
Detail 03
Single beater
One beater. Double-kick players running two pedals need two for a matched feel.
Detail 04
$17.99, entry-level tier
Priced as a consumable. Felt compresses and wears down over time, so treat it as a replacement part.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Check your pedal's shaft clamp size — beater shafts are not universal across every pedal
- 02No pedal, drum head, or hardware included
- 03Set beater height and angle after installing, or the strike point shifts
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will this fit my kick pedal?
It uses a standard beater shaft that clamps into most bass drum pedals. Measure your pedal's clamp opening first if you run older or boutique hardware.
02Felt or plastic beater — what's the difference?
Felt gives a warmer, rounder thump with less attack noise. Plastic and wood cut through louder mixes with a sharper click. Felt is also gentler on the head.
03Do I need two for a double pedal?
Yes. This is one beater. Running mismatched beaters on a double pedal gives you two different sounds between feet.
04How long does a felt beater last?
Felt packs down and flattens with playing time, which dulls the attack. Heavy players replace them periodically; light players can go years.
