Description

The Chord DHW-8 is a replacement drum head measuring 8 inches, finished in white. It's a general purpose head, so it suits a wide range of drums and playing styles without being tied to one particular sound or setup. If you've worn out a head or you just want a fresh, clean look on your kit, this is a straightforward swap.

We've kept things simple here. The white finish gives a bright, tidy appearance and works well whether you're fitting it to a tom, a snare or another drum in that size bracket. As a general purpose head it strikes a fair balance between tone and durability, which makes it a sensible choice for practice, rehearsal or regular gigging.

Fitting is the same as any standard head: remove the old one, seat the new head over the shell and tension it evenly with your tuning key. Note that drum heads are sometimes called drum skins in the UK, and the two terms mean the same thing. Because this is an 8 inch head, check your drum measures the same before ordering so you get a proper fit. If you run several drums of this size, it can be worth keeping a spare or two on hand.
