Aquarian Super Kick II Clear Bass Drum Head - 18''
6 models to choose from:
The Aquarian Super Kick II (SKII) Bass Drumhead uses 2 7mil plies of NEW BRITE drumhead film and features Aquarian's patented "Floating Muffling System".
The attached narrow felt muffle ring moves and "breathes" with the drumhead and reduces annoying overtones while enhancing the low-end frequencies with a well-defined punchy sound. Aquarian's "multi-ply vacuum molding process" makes the two 7mil plies act as one-ply to add punch, clarity, and a pure tone. The durable SKII creates just the right balance between resonance control and a big bass drum sound.
Often imitated, never duplicated, the Superkick line of bass drumheads is an industry best seller and a favorite among those drummers, drum techs, and recording engineers who want to quickly and easily achieve a musical, controlled bass drum sound without the use of blankets, pillows or external muffling.
• Vacuum Molded Process for clarity
• Floating Muffle System for control

I bought this because I've heard great things about Aquarian heads, and the list of pro drummers who use them is impressive. Now, it may just be a poor quality run at the plant, but I installed this on my kick and cracked the outer ply within 2 weeks. The one I replaced (Remo) lasted over a decade, so it's not a "heavy foot" issue. Not sure I'd buy another, but for 50$, it was worth a try.

I have put this on my 24" pearl target kick and made it sound like a cannon! Easy to tune and makes any kick drum better!

Love the fat boom this head produces! My bass drum sounds like a cannon with the SK-II on it. I often bury the mallet and this drumhead has lasted for 5 years of serious pounding. I won't even waste my time trying other bass drum heads!
