Doesn' t work that great for me on bass drum.
I use this head on a 22''x16'' bass drum and i'm not very impressed with it. It is used together with a Remo kick patch. This might be the reason the head sounds dull and bassless. Even when tuned again it just doesn't cut it. This is just my situation, I could imagine this head sounds amazing on other bass drums as it is a high quality head.
