Remo Ambassador Coated Drum Head - 14 Inch

OK there are several approaches to what is a good... after playing mostly evans on toms and BD for the last 17 years, including the new 360s, I feel the need to make the case for Remo.All my drumming years I have not found a better snare drum head than coated Ambassador... why is that? I thought it was my mind being used to or brought with that tone.Remo is not as high tech... but man, they do sound great... a tone much less plasticky than other heads... the term "warm" is such a cliché... but if there is a deserving piece of gear to give you a "warm" tone are these.Recently "good" heads are those that any idiot can tune in 3 seconds... But after using these in all toms tecently I have to say RESPECT.I have all kinds of batter heads I use... Evans G2 clear and coated, Ec2, REMO vintage Emperor, Ambassador coated... all have their good qualities... this review is more geared towrads those in doubt and with a perception that these are obsolete or limited heads... it is a complete 180° from that.These are the most versatile and musical heads there are... Totally.

I was uncertain what batter head to get for my Mapex Piccolo snare drum 13 X 3.5 inches. The delivered head was marked as a Remo Head, but the type as not specified. I called Remo directly, they said the stock head is a Remo "Knockoff" but it is a Remo Ambassador single ply coated (a Litle hazy coating). I installed in easily and it tuned easily too. I like Piccolo Snare Snap, which it delivers. I rated it 5 Stars but really don't know about longevity / durability yet. But it feesl solid and well made. Highly recommended.

This 14" head fit my low tom head perfectly, and for a cheap price. Made in the USA, I bought this head along with a 12" and 13" and I am pleased with all three. I’ve been drumming for almost three years now and needed to replace my low quality heads that have been beaten and battered to all hell with higher quality heads with a better, warmer sound. Remo does just that.Observations:- The heads look exactly as described. I bought three drum heads; the 14" head is obviously larger than both the 12” and 13” heads.- This is your standard Remo Ambassador drum head. There’s no glossy finish. This is a simple head and it does a simple job.- It might be a given, but know your setup before purchasing and research what you need to do to produce a less muffling and in tune sound. Any experienced drummer knows this.Although my old heads were produced by GP Percussion, as that is the brand of my drum set, it is already evident to me that Remo has much higher quality heads that create wonderful sound when hit with proper muffling. I recommend these for the sound and given price. I should note that I bought this product at full price and am not affiliated with Amazon or the seller.

Great drumhead

It’s the best drumhead for the bottom of an 18” floor tom. The head is versatile for every genre of music, and musical situation.

Thankfully I fixed the head on my own, but the seller could have shipped this in a bigger box to prevent shipping damage like this. Otherwise, great batter head for my floor tom.

You will never go wrong with this drum head
