Information

This Gretsch Ambassador 18" Coated Bass Drum Head is now available with us at Graham Russell Drums!

The Gretsch Ambassador Coated Bass Drum Head delivers a classic, open and resonant sound, making it an excellent choice for players who want to bring out the natural character of their bass drum. Built from a single ply of coated film, it offers a warm, balanced tone with smooth attack and full sustain.

The coated surface helps to soften the initial strike and control high-frequency overtones, resulting in a rounder, more musical response compared to clear heads. This makes it particularly well suited to jazz, acoustic and traditional playing styles, or for drummers who prefer a more open, un-muffled bass drum sound. The 18" size provides a focused low-end with clear definition, ideal for smaller bass drum setups.

Designed in partnership with Remo, the Ambassador construction ensures consistent quality and performance, delivering reliable tuning and a familiar feel trusted by drummers worldwide.
