Installation
To install the Ambassador Coated head, ensure the drum shell bearing edge is clean and free of debris. Place the head centered on the shell and tighten the tension rods in a cross-pattern (star pattern) to ensure even pressure across the hoop. Tune to your desired pitch, ensuring the head is seated firmly for maximum resonance and stability.
