The Kentville Drums 10-inch Medium Gauge Kangaroo Hide Drum Head delivers the raw, full-bodied warmth and natural response of genuine kangaroo hide. Suited to jazz, orchestral, folk and contemporary performers, it provides a melodic and responsive playing experience with the natural tonal character that traditional hide heads are known for.

Each Kentville drum head is entirely handmade using traditional techniques. Carefully selected hides are stretched and dried before being cut and thinned to the required thickness. The prepared hide is then lapped to a flesh hoop and placed on a mould to dry and form its crown, allowing the finished head to seat comfortably on the drum.

Kentville kangaroo hide heads are easy to tune, melodic, responsive and designed to deliver a natural sound without troublesome overtones. Every head undergoes a scrupulous final quality inspection to ensure it meets Kentville's standards before leaving the workshop. Sky Music Australia supplies Kentville Drums handmade Australian drumheads.
