RemoAmbassador Hazy Snare Side Head - 13 in.
Sale
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A 13-inch snare-side head. This is the thin bottom head that sits over the snare wires, not a playing surface.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Replacing a torn or dulled bottom head on a 13-inch snare
- Restoring snare wire response that has gone lifeless
- Piccolo and auxiliary snares in the 13-inch size
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Anyone needing a batter head to actually hit
- Drummers with a 14-inch snare, the standard size
- Use on toms or any drum without snare wires
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 finish
Slightly frosted rather than clear. Gives a warmer, less brittle snare response than a clear snare-side head.
Detail 03
Ambassador weight
Remo's standard snare-side thickness. The general-purpose choice when you don't have a specific reason to go thinner or thicker.
Detail 04
13 in.
Must match your snare's shell diameter exactly. Most snares are 14 inch, so confirm before ordering.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Check your snare diameter. 13-inch snares are common but 14-inch is the default size.
- 02Bottom head only. You still need a batter head for the top.
- 03Detune and remove the snare wires before swapping, or you'll tear the new head.
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Can I play on this head?
No. Snare-side heads are far thinner than batter heads and will puncture under a stick. It goes on the bottom only.
02What's the difference between hazy and clear snare side?
Hazy has a frosted film that gives a slightly warmer, rounder snare sound. Clear is a touch brighter and more cutting.
03How do I know when to replace it?
Dents around the snare bed, visible tears, or a snare response that stays choked no matter how you adjust the wires.
04Will this fit a 14-inch snare?
No. Head size must match shell diameter. A 13-inch head will not reach the hoop on a 14-inch drum.
