Description
Adams 28×18″ Free Suspended Concert Bass Drum delivers clear, warm tone in a compact and easy-to-manage format. Designed for schools, small ensembles, and mobile setups, this drum offers professional sound in a size that’s ideal for space-conscious performance environments.
Materials and Build Quality
The 28″ diameter provides solid low-end presence, while the 18″ depth ensures a faster response and tighter articulation. The shell is made from select maple, valued for its natural warmth and rich tonal projection. The free-suspended design allows the shell to resonate fully without touching the frame—maximizing sustain and tonal clarity.
Equipped with high-quality synthetic heads (calfskin available upon request), the drum delivers a wide tuning range and consistent performance. Reinforced counterhoops and tension rods ensure stable, even tuning. The frame includes pneumatic height adjustment, a tilt mechanism, and oversized locking casters—making setup and transport smooth and secure.
Performance and Use Case
The 28×18″ Free Suspended Bass Drum is ideal for school music departments, pit orchestras, and chamber ensembles that need high-quality tone in a smaller footprint. It’s easy to handle, store, and move, while still producing the resonant, expressive sound expected in concert settings. The compact depth makes it particularly well-suited for rhythmically precise playing and environments where space is limited.

- Maple shell with free-suspended frame for full resonance
