RemoAmbassador Hazy Snare Side Head - 12 in.
Sale
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Snare-side resonant head, 12 in., single-ply hazy film. For a 12-inch snare or a piccolo/side snare needing a standard replacement bottom head.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Replacing a torn or dented bottom head on a 12 in. snare
- Restoring wire response after the reso head has stretched out
- Keeping spare bottom heads in a gig bag or workshop
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Anyone needing a batter head — this goes on the bottom only
- Snares other than 12 in.; head size must match the drum
- Players wanting a drier, more muted snare response
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Hazy film
Translucent rather than clear. Slightly warmer, less brittle attack than a clear snare-side head.
Detail 03
Ambassador series
Remo's standard single-ply weight. The default reference sound rather than a thick or muffled option.
Detail 04
12 in. diameter
Fits a 12 in. snare shell only. Measure the shell, not the rim or the old head's printed size.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01One head only — no wires, tension rods, or drum key included
- 02Snare-side heads are thin and tear easily; seat tension evenly
- 03Bottom heads usually tune tighter than the batter side
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Which side does this go on?
The bottom, against the snare wires. It is a resonant head, not a batter head, and will not hold up to sticks.
02Will this fit my 12 inch tom?
It will physically fit, but it is not built for stick contact. Use a batter head on a tom instead.
03What is the difference between hazy and clear snare side?
Hazy is translucent and reads slightly warmer with a softer attack. Clear is a touch brighter and more cutting.
04Does this come with snare wires?
No. This is the head alone. Wires, straps, and hardware are separate.
