Essential Information About the RESO RING Drumhead for 18-Inch Tom
- Exemplary Harmonic Control thanks to the outer ring glued around the entire circumference, providing shorter and controlled resonance.
- 15 mil Double-Ply Construction (7.5 mil + 7.5 mil) offering a more punchy and stable sound, with facilitated dynamic response.
- Transparent Finish for an open, warm, and crisp tone, ideal for both recording and live performance.
- Stage/Studio Versatility: suitable for jazz, fusion, rock, and pop contexts.
Historical Context and Positioning Within the Range
Designed for drummers seeking a modern and efficient resonant drumhead, the RESO RING ranks among the transparent references with strong harmonic control. It combines the clear aesthetic of "clear" drumheads with fine vibration management, without muting the shell.
Who This Drum/Instrument Is For
The RESO RING is suitable for beginner to advanced drummers who want an easy-to-tune and consistent tom. It is aimed at both studio musicians and live performers, especially in jazz, fusion, rock, and pop where a clear attack and controlled sustain are desired.
Features and Innovations
Its double ply totaling 15 mil enhances tuning stability and durability over time. The glued peripheral ring acts as a harmonic corrector, smoothing unwanted frequencies without killing projection. The transparent finish preserves the natural openness of the shell and facilitates visual alignment during mounting.
Sound
When played, the attack is clear and crisp, immediately followed by a measured decay. Harmonics remain musical but contained, offering a warm low end and focused midrange. The result is a precise tom, easy to place in a mix, with enough openness to breathe without excessive bleed.
