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
36 in.
Head size must match your drum's shell diameter exactly. Measure the shell, not the old head's printed size.
Detail 03
Concert bass drum head
Tuned low and loose for a broad, rolling tone rather than the tight punch of a kick drum head.
Detail 04
Single head sold at this price
Concert bass drums have two sides. Replacing both means buying two.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Measure your shell diameter before ordering — 36 inch is a specific fit
- 02Only the head is included; no hoops, lugs, or tuning key
- 03Seating and even tensioning around the hoop matters more on large heads
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Can I use this on a bass drum in my kit?
It's built for concert bass drum, tuned low and open. On a kick it will sound loose and undefined, and 36 inches is far larger than standard kick sizes.
02Does this fit a 36-inch drum from another brand?
Head sizing is by shell diameter, so a 36-inch drum from another maker should fit. Measure the shell to confirm.
03Is this the batter or resonant side?
Fiberskyn heads of this type are used on the batter side. Many players run matching heads on both sides for a consistent tone.
04Do I need two for one drum?
A concert bass drum has a head on each side. This price covers one, so replacing both sides requires two.
