Ambassador Clear is a single ply 10-mil clear drumhead with an open, bright and resonant character and plenty of attack. It works as a batter head for players who want maximum sustain, and it is the industry standard resonant head for toms.
The standard tom resonant head, and a bright batter when you want the drum wide open.
The Ambassador Clear drumhead features an open, bright and resonant sound with plenty of attack. Constructed with 1-ply 10-mil Clear film, Ambassador Clear drumheads are used as batter heads and are the industry standard Tom resonant drumheads.

Should I Use Ambassador Clear on Top or Bottom?
Both are common. As a resonant head on toms it is the industry standard because it lets the shell ring freely. As a batter it gives a bright, attacking sound with long sustain, which suits jazz and open-sounding rock.
Clear or Coated, What Is the Difference?
Coating adds a layer of texture that damps some high frequencies, warms the tone and allows brush playing. Clear has no coating, so it is brighter, more resonant and has more attack. Clear cannot be used with brushes.
What Size Do I Need?
Measure the drum shell diameter rather than the old head. Rack toms are typically 10, 12 and 13 inches and floor toms 14 and 16.
Why Remo
Remo has made drumheads in the United States since 1957, when Remo Belli replaced calfskin with Mylar and ended the problem that had defined drumming until then: a head that changed pitch with the weather. Every major head design since has come out of that company, and the Ambassador remains the most widely used drumhead in the world. Remo also builds world percussion, marching heads and the Acousticon shells used across its drum circle range.
