Remo Practice Pad

Mylar-headed pads with real drum response

Remo's practice pads use a tensioned Mylar head over a muffled shell rather than a rubber slab, which reproduces the rebound of a tuned drum more closely than rubber does.

    The steel between the drummer and the drums. Bass drum pedals and hi-hat stands are considered purchases in their own right, and a throne outlasts several kits.

  • 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.
