Single-ply drumheads are typically more sensitive and offer a brighter tone, while double-ply drumheads, being thicker, provide a more controlled sound, higher durability, and are less prone to denting, making them better suited for heavier hitting.

Drumhead types are specific to the type of counter-hoop used on the drum. Drums with wooden counter-hoops, most common on bass drums, require a 'bass-type' drumhead which has a wide gauge aluminum flesh-hoop to properly seat and tune up. Drums that use metal counter-hoops, most common on snare and toms, require a non-bass drumhead which has a thinner gauge aluminum flesh-hoop to seat inside. Players have managed to interchange head types in some cases, but it's not likely nor recommended for optimum performance. *We also identify with the part #'s where the 3rd digit is '0' for snare/tom and '1' for bass use. For example: PINSTRIPE® CLEAR DRUMHEAD, 20" PS-0320-00 is for snare/tom style PS-1320-00 is for bass style.
Yes, drumheads for Premier model drums are still available for purchase. In the 1980's, Remo worked closely with Premier to develop tooling for 4 major sizes: Rack Toms- 10" (9-5/8" actual diameter), 12" (11-7/8" actual diameter); Floor Toms-16" (16-5/16" actual diameter); and Bass-20" (19-5/8" actual diameter). Please note: some Premier models were made outside of these 'standardized' sizes, and may require a full custom made-by-hand drumhead. If your measurements fall outside of these specs, please see custom drumhead link: https://support.remo.com/hc/en-us/articles/202362179-Custom-Drumheads If the inner-diameter of your current drumheads are consistent to the sizes listed above, choose from the following list and submit the special order with your local or online retail store.
