Aquarian Super-Kick II Bass Drumhead

The distinctly 2-ply design lends this bass drumhead extra durability, and a tighter, more focused sound.

Aquarian Super-Kick II Customer Review

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)

I'll beat a hole in it before I give it up.
Sound
I put this head a on relatively cheap bass drum today. I'm almost speechless. It sounds so good (with zero other muffling) that I had to write a review to make sure others know. I tuned it low and the resonant head just barely above it; It's 100% attack with plenty of "whoomf" to boot. It doesn't ring. It's probably perfect for recording, though MAYBE a little dry for live playing. My guitarist looked at me after we played our first song and said "That bass drum is amazing. I can feel it in my chest."
Features
The muffling ring works. It was easy to tune (I did use a drum dial, but it was one time around to get close, one rotation to fine tune; total about 2 minutes)
Ease of Use
Put it on, crank it up. Thump.
Quality
It's a thick drum head. I imagine it will last a long time.
Value
This head is pretty cheap compared to some other bass drum heads and it sounds awesome. You don't have to worry about your pillowing touching the head just right, or whether it moves when you beat on your drum.
Manufacturer Support
haven't needed them.
The Wow Factor
It's a drum head. It's not really sexy, but i guess with a clear drum head on the front it looks interesting to see the ring from the audience perspective.

Over many years of playing and giging, the Super-Kick II has become my favorite batter side bass drum head. Paired with the Aquarian Force II resonant side head, the sound is unbeatable. No other damping is required. Pull all that junk out of the inside of your kick drum and give it the sound it should have.

"The best Bass Drum head"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
I may never try anything else.
Sound
I can't say enough about this drum head. It makes my drum sound fantastic. I was able to tune my Kick drum without any pillows or blankets or other junk in my drum. It sounds so musical I can't describe it. I paired it with a Regulator front head and it just has to be heard to be believed. I bought a second super Kick II for another set I have and will be buying a third one soon. I will probably never even try another head. The Aquarian Super Kick II, in my opinion, is the best there is!
Features
It's a head
Ease of Use
Simple, simple. I do recommend using a drum dial tuner but it's certainly not necessary.
Quality
Put a kick spot on it and it might last for years.
Value
Worth way more than the price.
Manufacturer Support
Never needed to contact the company.
The Wow Factor
Sex appeal? It's a drum head, dude.
