Remo PP-0680-PS Clear Pinstripe® heads are made with two 7-mil Mylar® plies, and have quick decay, making them ideal heads for the “fat” sounds of Pop, Rock and R&B and for those who want a low pitched sound with moderate attack and response characteristics. The well-known Clear Pinstripe® heads are made with two 7 mil Mylar® plys with a measured layer of a ring reducing agent applied between them at the outer edge of their trademark stripe to dampen high frequency overtones for warmer resonance. The EMPEROR X™ is the thickest snare head ever made by REMO®. It was changed into a production item after more and more artists began ordering them as custom heads.
Remo PP-0680-PSMike Fasano (Warrant) who was the first to create the buzz about the new 20-mil head, loved the idea of a “snare head with this much attitude”. He in turn got John Tempesta (Rob Zombie) and Matt Sorum (Velvet Revolver), Tre Cool (Green Day) and Travis Barker (The Transplants) hooked on the new head too, and the list continues to grow.
