Questions & Answers

Do you get a bag with it?

In the standard Remo box, it's just the head.

As a total newbie, I have no idea how to go about As far as I knew, the entire drum was missing. In what direction does this lead? It would have been nice if there were 2" rims on ?

It's a hand drum that can be mounted to a stand (like a conga). I have a Meinl Percussion Stand with Full Height Adjustability-- but no mic or headphones. A Chinese product cannot be guaranteed to be of high quality The rubber brambles provide more stability, are adjustable to multiple drum sizes, and can use with any size djembe Warranties of up to one year

Selected User Reviews For Remo FD0514-00 14-Inch Fiberskyn Diplomat Drum Head

It was exactly what I wanted for tone
5/5

My 14 x 6 printer has a nice lowish mellow tone to it which works for me. This is a 5 snare set. Then, to add a bit more sparkle to the sound, I added a snareweight Junior brass on one side and a snareweight M1 on the other, and with a 16-strand Puresound snare I got the perfect combination. I cannot speak to the longevity of these yet, since they are reported to bubble (on the top coating), but I have used them with very light maple sticks, so I am not concerned about that.

This is the first time I have played since I was 15
5/5

I bought a Fiberskyn head for the very first time. Brushes have a nice feel to them. It's a snappy game Hopefully it will be a great fit for this application. The volume of Blues, Jazz and Funk should be lowered. As soon as I do some gigs with it, I will update.

It's so wonderful to have my own It was an amazing experience to drum with your hands
5/5

It has brought me a great deal of confidence, with this fine piece. I would recommend it to anyone. In addition, the price is fair! Just bang a little bit every day, nothing more, nothing less. It is so exciting to play with your own rhythms. It is so relaxing as well.

This is as good as a real skin head! First, let me say that I have played real skin drumheads and there is no real sonic magic with No one can come close to the sound and feel of cowhide without being in a close proximity There is no reason to use mike setting ever again
5/5

For sound and feel, I prefer the Thins, so unless you want to spend a considerable amount of money on real skin (and deal with the headaches), these should work well for that market niche.

The tone on this skin is lovely, I like how deep it is
5/5

Despite the fact that it has a nice deep tone and is fairly soft, the skin is easy to tune.

The tone is excellent and the sustain is superb
5/5

Toms on my Jazz set have been switched from ambassador weight to diplomat weight. The tone of the diplomat appears to be brighter and has a slightly longer sustain to me. Keeping the volume low without pressing too hard allows me to get a great tone.

Originally designed for jazz drummers, Remo Fiberskyn The Best comes in an array of colors and is excellent
5/5

Its smooth, good locking surface is ideal for brushes, and its head stays in tune without wear. One of its remarkable features is that it does not show dirt like other frosted heads may. They look as good as new now as when I put them on my kit a few months ago.
