Description

The Remo Suede Ambassador Bass Drum Head offers a uniquely warm and focused sound, thanks to its proprietary suede-textured film. Built from a single ply of 10mil film, it combines the open tone of the classic Ambassador series with a more subdued attack and a refined, mellow resonance.

The suede surface creates a silky response that pairs especially well with felt or wood beaters, making it a great choice for drummers who want warmth and control without sacrificing character. It also provides excellent performance as a resonant head, offering a more natural tone than clear or fully coated alternatives.

Visually, the matte suede finish adds a sophisticated touch to your kit, especially suited for acoustic, studio, jazz, or vintage-style setups.

Why Choose the Suede Ambassador:

  • Produces warm, musical tone with smooth overtones

  • Soft feel and subdued attack ideal for dynamic playing

  • Great for use with felt, wood, or brush beaters

  • Matte appearance complements classic and custom kits

  • Versatile as a batter or resonant bass drum head
