Description
The Chord DHB-22 is a replacement drum head sized at 22 inches, made for general purpose use. It gives you a simple way to refresh a worn or damaged skin, whether you're replacing a batter head on a bass drum or swapping in something new after a run of hard playing. The black finish keeps things understated and works well across most kits.
This is a straightforward, general purpose head rather than a specialist model, so it suits practice, rehearsal and everyday playing. If you've been putting off a change because the old skin has lost its tone or picked up dents, fitting a fresh head is one of the easiest ways to get a cleaner, more even sound back from your drum. The 22 inch size is a common bass drum measurement, so check your shell diameter before ordering to make sure it matches.
A drum head is sometimes called a drum skin, and the two terms mean the same thing here. When you fit the DHB-22, seat it evenly over the shell and tension the lugs in a criss-cross pattern so the head sits flat and true. Take your time tuning it up gradually, as this helps the head settle and gives you a more consistent response across the surface. It's a practical choice for anyone keeping a working kit in good order.
