Remo FD0514-00 14-Inch Fiberskyn Diplomat Drum Head

El parche suena de maravilla. Lo único que no me ha gustado es que ahora la caja suena mucho mas fuerte (antes tenía un parche Ludwig). Esto que podría ser bueno para algunos baterías, a mí, que toco jazz y blues suaves, me da problemas. Me suena demasiado. Y si intento tocar piano, el color del sonido ya no me gusta. Me queda la batería desequilibrada. No sé si esto pasará en todas las cajas.

This is a good head for brushes. I was hoping it would have a little rougher surface, but it seems that it will last longer as a brush head than coated heads which can lose their roughness if used for stick playing which smooths the head down.The sound is fantastic and I was able to tune it so that it would compliment the sound of my tom-toms when playing without snares. It gives a perfect sound for a drum solo when I'm changing dynamics a lot and trying to sound like a tympanist. I am looking forward to trying out the other heads in the Fiberskyn line and overall I feel that the sound from this head makes my snare drum sound better than ever before.

Our sons drum kit is a Ludwig Accent starter kit. It's well made but came with cheep heads. After the original heads were spent we asked his drum instructor to recommend some good heads. On his advise we bought a mixed assortment of Remo heads. They are all wonderful sounding heads and this one is my favorite. The new heads transformed the kit from a boomy ringing tone to a very nice pro level sound. The Diplomat and Ambassador heads work great together. They have held up well. Highly recommended.

Wonderful hand drumming experience. Ive come a long way using this fine piece, in confidence. Totally recommend. Price is right, too!Drum a little each day, just plain nonsense... and soon rhythms of your own materialize. Great fun and so relaxing.

I started using Remo fiberskin long ago, about 40 years ago. I stopped using these because they were not very durable. Other than that, I really like the warm tone they give. I play mostly jazz and funk and I use brushes now and then, so this drumhead fits my style. About durability we'll see if after 40 years they improved it or not.
