Remo Pinstripe

Two plies with a free-floating edge

Pinstripe heads bond two plies only at the outer edge, leaving a small air gap that damps overtones without muffling the fundamental. On toms it produces the fat, controlled sound of a great deal of 1970s and 1980s rock.

  • Drumheads

    The consumable that changes a drum's voice more than the shell does. Single and double ply, clear and coated, with and without built-in muffling.

Made by

  • Remo

    Remo Belli's Mylar drumhead, introduced in the late 1950s, ended the era of calfskin and made drums that stayed in tune through weather and travel. The company went on to build world percussion with synthetic shells and heads — djembes, frame drums, and the tunable Roto Toms — and remains the largest drumhead maker in the world.
