The Most Popular Two-Ply Head: The Remo Emperor Coated

For decades, the Remo Emperor Coated has been the go-to choice for drummers seeking a versatile, durable, and musical sound.

It is one of the most recorded drumheads in history, celebrated for its perfect balance of tone and longevity. The head is constructed with two plies of 7-mil coated film, which provides a warm, deep sound with a focused attack. This two-ply design not only offers increased durability for heavier players but also shortens the sustain just enough to create a punchy, articulate tone that sits perfectly in a mix.

From pop and R&B to the heaviest rock, the Emperor Coated is the reliable, professional standard for toms and snares alike.

• Industry Standard Tone: Delivers the warm, open, and resonant sound that has been a staple on countless recordings across all genres.

• Durable Two-Ply Construction: Made with two plies of 7-mil film, offering excellent durability and a powerful, focused attack that is ideal for live performance.

• Coated for Warmth: The classic Remo coating helps to slightly dampen high-frequency overtones, adding warmth and focus to the overall sound.

• Ultimate Versatility: The perfect middle-ground head, providing more durability and focus than a single-ply head, but more resonance and warmth than pre-dampened heads. Can be used on toms or snares.

• Professional Choice: A top choice for both recording studios and live stages due to its consistent, reliable, and musical performance.
