SLUG Batter Badge - Star-shaped universel pad (80 mm)

About SLUG Star-Shaped Universal Badge

SLUG’s protective pads are amazing!

They stand out by being both highly durable and preserving the original attack of your drum sound—or at least staying very close to it. In other words, you won’t suddenly end up with a wild death-metal kick sound like you might with some other (included) pads.

This model is versatile and can be used on any drum in your kit. The striking area measures 80 mm, and the pad itself is just 0.25 mm thick.

How to Use

Place the pad exactly where your bass drum beater or drumsticks hit the drumhead. This protects the drumhead and significantly extends its lifespan, while also greatly reducing the risk of tearing through the skin.

SLUG’s Batter Badges retain the natural feel of your (bass) drum, unlike many other products of this kind, which often alter the sound.

SLUG Batter Badges are made from a material that both protects the drumhead and ensures optimal sound quality.

Boost Attack on Your Mesh Head

If you have a practice drum kit with mesh heads, these Batter Badges work great, too.

They add just a bit of attack to your bass drum, which many drummers find lacking. With SLUG’s Batter Badges, you’ve got the perfect solution.

Installing the Batter Badge

SLUG Batter Badges are easy to install thanks to their self-adhesive design.

1. First, make sure the drumhead is clean and free of dust.

2. Remove the protective backing.

3. Carefully place the pad on the drumhead.

It’s crucial to position it correctly on the first attempt, as the adhesive is very strong.

Also Available for Double Pedals
