Abstract
A removable drumhead for use over atop the existing drumhead of a musical drum is disclosed. The removable drumhead includes a textured playing surface adapted to permit the user to stroke the removable drumhead with a drum brush and obtain a desired musical tone. The removable drumhead is constructed from a thin sheet of supple material such as plastic. The playing surface may be formed to be integral with the body of the sheet of material. The removable drumhead may include a tab-like extension adapted to permit the user to grasp and manipulate the drumhead, e.g. for positioning the removable drumhead atop the existing drumhead or for removing the removable drumhead from the drum.
