Remo Vintage A
The Head That Started It All...
In 1957 Remo's 'VIntage A' drum head changed the art
of drumming forever. Constructed of 2-ply 7.5mm and 3mm polyester film,
this was the first viable alternative to calf heads.
As part of their 50th Anniversary Celebrations they
have re-issued the 'Vintage A' so you can fit a little piece of history
to your kit. Remo 'Vintage A' drumheads are available from your local
Remo UK Dealer.
Overview
The first Weatherking Drumhead was made of newly introduced
Mylar from DuPont™. 7 mil and 3 mil ply films were combined to
make the first AMBASSADOR® drumhead. It was the drumhead that changed
the sound of the world.
History
The growth of the drum-set as a popular musical instrument became a
reality the day Ringo Starr appeared with the Beatles on the Ed Sullivan
Show. That day, the drum-set boom took off and Remo Drumheads went with
it.
Vintage “A” Drumheads feature AMBASSADOR® durability
with a unique soft feel reminiscent of calf heads with accentuated snare
response for back beats, ghost notes, brushes and press roles.
