Timeless Tone, Modern Performance: Discover the Remo Ambassador Fiberskyn Drum Heads.
The Remo Ambassador Fiberskyn drum heads are meticulously crafted to deliver the coveted look, feel, and warm, full-range tone reminiscent of traditional calfskin, while offering the consistency and durability of modern synthetic materials. This unique fusion makes them a premier choice for drummers seeking a classic aesthetic paired with reliable performance across diverse musical landscapes.
Each Ambassador Fiberskyn head features a single ply of 10-mil film laminated to a 3-mil polyspun fiber, resulting in a total thickness of 13-mil. This construction provides outstanding definition and enhanced mid and low-range resonance, delivering a full and warm sound with a responsive feel. The fiber coating helps to reduce unwanted overtones, ensuring a clear and focused tone. Whether you're playing with sticks, brushes, or mallets, these heads offer sensitive articulation and a beautiful brush response, making them exceptionally versatile for various playing styles and dynamic levels.
From the nuanced demands of jazz and R&B to the powerful grooves of classic rock, the Ambassador Fiberskyn series excels. They are highly regarded for their performance on snare drums, bass drums, toms, concert percussion, and marching band applications. Their durable construction also makes them suitable for outdoor use, providing consistent sound in challenging environments. For studio recording, these heads offer a controlled yet resonant sound, perfect for capturing a warm, natural drum tone. For bass drums, they can provide an immense low end, offering a rich, rounded tone that can be surprisingly deep and full.
