Essential Information About the RESO RING Resonant Head
- Immediate harmonic control thanks to an integrated aluminum outer hoop and a "donut" ring.
- Sharper attack, shortened sustain, and controlled projection, ideal for both studio and stage.
- Simple transparent single-ply construction (7-7.5 mil) for a sensitive and precise response.
- Stylistic versatility: jazz, fusion, rock, general applications in resonance or dry stroke.
Historical Context and Positioning in the Range
Designed in the spirit of pre-muted heads, the RESO RING targets drummers seeking a controlled "vintage" sound without adding external muffling. It positions itself as a modern, stable resonant head that's ready to play.
Who This Head Is For
For beginners, intermediates, and professionals looking for toms with a clear pitch and warm harmonics. Ideal for amplified environments, home recording, and contexts where precision takes precedence over note length.
Features and Innovations
Its simple transparent ply highlights dynamics, while the aluminum hoop and "donut" ring reduce unwanted frequencies and facilitate tuning. The integrated control limits feedback and speeds up head changes without additional accessories.
The Sound
The 7-7.5 mil single ply offers a
clean attack,
present mids, and
warm harmonics. In resonance, the note is focused with
measured resonance; when struck, it delivers a drier, punchier sound reminiscent of "vintage" textures while remaining musical. Projection stays contained, ideal for keeping toms clear in a tight mix.
