Description
The Chord DHB-15 is a replacement drum head measuring 15 inches, finished in black. We supply it as a general purpose head, so it suits a range of tom and snare sizes that call for a 15in fitting. If you have worn through an existing head or want a spare kept ready in your case, this gives you a straightforward option that does the job without fuss.
The black finish keeps things looking tidy across the kit, and pairs well with darker shells or hardware if you want a more uniform look. As a general purpose head, it handles everyday playing and practice, whether you are rehearsing at home or gigging at the weekend. We would suggest keeping the tension even across the lugs when you fit it, so the head seats properly and tunes cleanly.
Note the terminology if you are shopping around. A drum head is sometimes called a drum skin in the UK, though most players use the two names interchangeably. Fitting is the same as any standard head: remove the hoop and old head, drop the new one in, then tension the rods gradually in a criss-cross pattern. Check the 15in size matches your drum before ordering, as heads are sold to fit specific shell diameters and will not seat correctly if the measurement is out.
