Description

Product Overview

Overview

The Remo Emperor Vintage Coated drumhead is a professional-grade reissue of the legendary head that defined the sound of heavy rock drumming in the 1970s. Designed for drummers who require a balance of extreme durability and a rich, warm tonal character, this head brings a classic sonic profile to modern percussion setups.

Engineered with a heavy-duty construction, the Emperor Vintage Coated utilizes two plies of 7.5-mil coated film. This specific layering process enhances mid and low-range frequencies, providing a fuller, deeper punch than single-ply alternatives while maintaining the resilience needed for aggressive playing styles.

What Stands Out

Key Details

  • Construction: 2-ply design for increased strength and longevity.
  • Film Thickness: Dual layers of 7.5-mil film.
  • Finish: Coated surface for controlled overtones and brush compatibility.
  • Tonal Focus: Enhanced mid and low-range frequency response.
  • Heritage Design: Authentic reissue of the original 1970s Emperor Coated head.
  • Durability: Maximum resistance to wear and tear from heavy hitting.
  • Application: Ideal for snare drums and tom-toms.
  • Brand Quality: Manufactured by Remo, the industry standard in drumhead technology.
Best For

Use Cases

Heavy Rock and Metal: Perfect for drummers who hit hard and need a head that can withstand high-impact playing without sacrificing tone.

Vintage Studio Recording: Ideal for engineers and musicians seeking the “classic” 70s drum sound characterized by warm lows and a focused attack.

Versatile Live Performance: A great choice for any genre requiring a durable head with a balanced, full-bodied resonance that cuts through a loud mix.

Setup Notes

Installation

To install the Remo Emperor Vintage Coated head, ensure the drum shell bearing edge is clean and free of debris. Place the head onto the shell and insert the tension rods. Tighten the lugs in a cross-pattern (star pattern) to ensure even tension across the head. Tune to your preferred pitch, ensuring the head is seated firmly and evenly to maximize the 2-ply resonance.

Compatibility Check

Compatibility

This drumhead is compatible with any standard drum or snare drum with a diameter of 13 inches. It is designed for use on drums with standard bearing edges.
