Remo Ambassador Coated vs Remo Emperor Coated Heads

Remo ambassador coated on all drums as coated and reso, tune them up bebop high and have no muffling in the bass drum then youre set to go

I'm a drummer, and a good one at that. I'm not conceited, but I know what I'm doing. For years I removed the resonant heads, and pinstripes on the batter with tape, paper towel, and God knows what else to achieve the sound I wanted, I then hatched an idea, why not simplify this? So here's the trick, pinstripes on the resonant side, these beautiful emperors (dear sweet God, get coated, more versatile, more responsive, etc.) on the batter side, and for that final touch, internal drum mufflers (more versatile and adjustable than other forms of muffling)

Each tom has a Remo coated ambassador batter head, and most have the Remo ambassador clear skins as resonant heads.When tuning I notice a lot of the lugs tend to not hold their tightness very well, as when tightening one lug is loosens the one I just tightened by a bit. This is making it very difficult to get a consistent tune. On top of this the skins look to be fairly well used and aged (not terrible though at all)

With Remo's, the tuning is easier. Only rated it 5 stars because the scale goes no higher. Arrived on time.

You can choose heads based on the sound you like, if it were me I'd probably put Remo Ambassador clears on the bottom and coated on the top, but if you like a crisper low-overtone sounds go with a two-ply head on top, and if you like a louder sound with overtones, go clear top and bottom. For the snare, I love my Evans genera dry with the vent holes, thin and clear for the bottom.

I think drum heads are pure opinion and they are. Some like Remo and others, like myself prefer Evans. These Remo heads don't tune to well and kinda have a cheap sound. Good for beginners but for someone who knows what they are doing WOULD NOT use these

And change the bass drum head to an Emad clear level 360 or a Remo powerstroke 3 clear. Then it sounds really good.

I'm a little OCD about some things and I hate having any head that peels and flakes after usage, even some of the "best" and "highest" and "most expensive" coated heads do this. I just feel it makes the head ugly as well as makes it weaker. My point here is that this head does not do this. I have been using this for a long time and not one small flake has come off
