Constructed with 2-plies of 7-mil Clear film, Pinstripe® Clear drumheads have an overtone reducing agent applied between the 2-plies providing overtone control with increased attack. The Pinstripe® series is one of the world’s most popular drumheads.
Q. Is Remo Pinstripe good?
The Remo Pinstripe Clear has a strong attack, with a boost to the midrange and low-end. This drumhead gives excellent focus, and reduces unwanted overtones. The sustain is short, and overtones are kept to a minimum. This sound is great on toms, or on hard-to-tune drums.

Q. What is the difference between Remo Ambassador and Emperor?
Durability. Remo Ambassadors are a single ply drumhead, and they are therefore less durable than Remo Emperors. Remo Emperors offer superior durability of the two. The extra thickness means they have a longer life span and they can hold up to heavier playing as well as more aggressive styles of music.
Q. What are Remo UT heads?
“The Remo UT heads are made in our factory in China. They are made using the same Dupont Mylar film as is used on the Remo USA WeatherKing head. The difference is in the construction of the head. Whereas the US head is made using a poured channel technique, the China heads are crimped.
Q. Where are Remo drumheads made?
Drumheads. Remo supplies drumheads for various drum companies including Pearl, DW Drums, Yamaha, Mapex, Pork Pie Percussion and Sonor. Remo has factories in the US and in Taiwan, where the “UT” and “US” versions are made.
Q. Do bottom drum heads matter?
When it comes to really making a difference on your drums, the most important factor when choosing a resonant skin is the thickness. The thicker the bottom head, the more resonance you get. As a result, thicker heads give more overtones.
Q. How often should you change drum skins?
On a more normal tour schedule where there are only four or five shows per week you can probably go longer. It depends on how hard you hit your drums. I suggest you change the heads on the bottom of your toms and snare once a year. Some players never change those heads, but a new set will help liven up your sound.
Q. What are the bottom drum heads called?
resonant heads
Q. How often should you change drum cymbals?
Well, a drummer who hits with light to moderate force and good control should be able to make a cymbal last for 20 to 50 years, especially if they’re cleaned regularly.
