10-Year-Old Resonant Drum Heads vs Brand New | The REAL Sound Difference

Will your resonant tom heads on you drums need occasional replacement, or is that a misconception? Let's take a look at a comparison of new vs old drum heads, on the bottom side of my toms (resonant drum heads swapped, same top side remo drumheads). This drum head comparison will swap out 10 year old resonant heads for ones of the same make – Clear Remo Ambassadors. As an added bonus, we'll also try swapping a fairly new Chinese made Remo head with a US made ambassador to see if that has an audible difference. We'll listen to slower hits (focus on the decay), faster drum hits (focus on how the drum sounds getting pushed), and in context of drum beats. Here are the different heads used in this video: Remo Ambassador Clear 8": https://amzn.to/3vRTgwV Remo Ambassador Clear 10": https://amzn.to/3UgUnAq Remo Ambassador Clear 12": https://amzn.to/3vTdqqf Remo Ambassador Clear 14": https://amzn.to/3SyKADp Remo Ambassador Clear 16": https://amzn.to/42fjAgv If you purchase through the above links, I'll make a tiny commission.
