Custom Port Holes Never Looked Better

If you want to add a port hole or two to your kick drumhead, Bass Drum O's are the way to go. Of course they look cool - if you play rock or metal, Bass Drum O's are guaranteed to boost your drumming cred. But they also protect your port from damage and cover up frayed, uneven, and unsightly cutouts.

Installation takes less than 10 minutes. Position your Bass Drum O's where you want the hole and trace a ring along the inside. Then cut out the hole with a utility knife or box cutter. If you're the fastidious sort like many of us at Sweetwater, you can make it easy on yourself with the Bass Drum O's Hole Cutter tool (not included; sold separately). Two strong adhesive rings hold the Bass Drum O's in place, so it won't budge when you insert a pillow or microphone.

It rattles

The male and female rings kept popping loose just enough to rattle every time the bass drum was played. They did not delaminate completely from the head (the adhesive is very strong) but somehow would not stay locked properly, despite being installed properly.

I have had success in the past, but this was a failure. The product looked good, was easy enough to install, and served its purpose for about a day. After coming loose, it would not stop rattling, and there was nothing I could do. The sound was unsuitable for recording. I had no choice but to remove the o rings in the middle of a session.
