Remo - Ambassador White Suede 16'' Drum Head

On a 16" tom, the striking skin defines the tonal character of the instrument as much as the wood of the body itself - it decides whether the note opens generously or closes too quickly. The Remo Ambassador White Suede 16" delivers warm, open tones supported by optimal resonance: the single ply allows the body to express itself fully, without the compression that a multi-ply construction would introduce, while the 10-mil calibrated mass maintains the balance between pronounced sustain and dynamic control under the baton.
White Suede™ technology forms the acoustic heart of this skin. The textured Smooth White™ surface isn't just a cosmetic finish - its micro-roughness diffuses the aggressive high frequencies of the initial attack, softening the transient without sacrificing hit definition. The non-reflective appearance confirms this focus: a skin designed to absorb what needs to be absorbed, restore what matters. 1-ply construction for maximum sensitivity to playing nuances.
Designed for mid and bass toms in jazz, fusion and organic rock configurations, this Ambassador 16" is a natural match for warm resonant woods - maple, birch, walnut. It's equally at home in unmuted acoustic set-ups or in studio recording, where the warmth of a tom's low midrange is a valuable mixing asset. Diameter 16" / 406 mm, compatible with standard mounts.
