Installation
To install the Remo Vintage Emperor, remove the existing batter head and ensure the drum bearing edge is clean and free of debris. Place the new head onto the shell, ensuring it is centered perfectly.
Insert the tension rods and tighten them in a cross-pattern (star pattern) to ensure even pressure across the hoop. Gradually increase tension until the desired pitch is achieved, making final fine-tuning adjustments to eliminate unwanted overtones.
Compatibility
This drum head is compatible with any drum or percussion instrument featuring a standard 8″ diameter bearing edge. It is designed specifically for use as a batter (top) head.
Additional Details
The Remo Vintage Emperor is manufactured to strict tolerances to ensure that every head performs consistently across different drums. Its clear film construction not only provides a modern aesthetic but also ensures that the drum’s natural resonance is not dampened, providing a professional sound right out of the box.
