Remo Bass Drum Heads - Expert Advice from a UK Drum Store

The bass drum head is one of the most important tonal decisions a drummer can make, and Remo offer one of the most comprehensive ranges available - covering everything from open and resonant batter heads to pre-muffled options, mesh practice heads, and specialist resonant skins.

At Into Music Store, we stock the full Remo bass drum head range across multiple series and sizes, from 18" up to 24". Whether you're replacing a worn batter head, upgrading your resonant skin, or converting your acoustic kit for quiet practice, we have the right head for the job.

The Ambassador Clear and Coated are the most versatile options - open, resonant, and suitable for virtually any style of music. The Powerstroke 3 adds an inlay ring near the outer edge to control overtones and tighten the low-end response, making it a popular choice for rock, pop, and studio work. For drummers who want a studio-ready sound without additional dampening, the Ambassador SMT uses Sub Muffl Technology to deliver controlled, powerful low tones straight out of the box. The Pinstripe uses a twin-ply construction for quick decay and a punchy, low-pitched sound, while the Emperor Coated offers increased durability and projection for harder-hitting players.

For quiet practice, the Remo Silentstroke mesh bass drum heads reduce volume dramatically while maintaining a realistic rebound and feel - ideal for home practice or electronic drum conversions.

As an authorised Remo stockist, every head we sell is genuine and backed by Remo's quality standards. If you're searching for a drum store near me or looking to buy Remo bass drum heads online in the UK, Into Music Store offers fast delivery with next day options available on most orders.

You're also welcome to visit us in person at our drum showroom in Horncastle, Lincolnshire, where our team of experienced drummers can help you find the right bass drum head for your kit and playing style.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Remo Powerstroke 3 is one of the most popular bass drum heads for rock and pop. Its single-ply Mylar construction with an inlay ring near the outer edge controls overtones and tightens the low-end response, giving a focused, punchy sound without the need for additional dampening. It's available in Clear and Coated finishes in 20" and 22" sizes. The Remo Pinstripe is another popular choice for quick decay and a low-pitched, punchy attack.
The batter head is the side you strike with the beater - it needs to be durable and produce the attack and tone you want. The resonant head (reso) sits on the front of the bass drum and shapes the overall tone and projection. Many drummers use a ported resonant head (with a hole cut in it) to allow microphone placement and control sustain. Remo make dedicated batter and resonant heads across their range - if you're unsure which you need, call us on 01507 526517 for advice.
The Ambassador SMT (Sub Muffl Technology) is a pre-muffled bass drum head that delivers controlled, powerful low tones without any additional dampening inside the drum. It features an externally mounted dampening profile with free-floating acoustic foam that controls high and mid frequencies while preserving a full, punchy low-end. It's ideal for drummers who want a studio-ready bass drum sound straight out of the box, and is available in 20" and 22".
Yes - the Remo Silentstroke mesh bass drum heads are designed for both quiet acoustic practice and electronic drum trigger use. They reduce volume to very low levels while maintaining a realistic rebound and feel. Available in 20" and 22", they're a popular choice for drummers converting acoustic kits to hybrid or fully electronic setups, or for anyone who needs to practice at home without disturbing others.
We stock Remo bass drum heads in sizes from 18" up to 24", covering the most common bass drum sizes used in acoustic kits. The most popular sizes are 20" and 22".
