I decided to try out a few Asapura drumheads and one of them was this Coated w/dot drumhead, ST-250CD, similar to a Remo CS.
The dot underneath is white and a bit smaller than on Remo. Holding the head in my hands and inspecting it, it just feels and looks great and says quality all over it.
It took me under a minute to tune it up on my Black Beauty and I was pleasantly surprised how fast it went and the head is easy to tune. The overtones are more clean than other heads I´ve used, more "right" and very pleasant to the ear. Normally I find the Remo CS loose a little sensitivity compared to a coated Ambassador which has been my go to snare head. Not this head. It´s very sensitive but has lots of "oomph" so to speak. I couldn´t stop playing the drum. It sounds absolutely magnificent with this head.
As a professional drummer for over 40 years I have tried most things under the sun. These Asapura heads are a welcome change. They are absolutely wonderful.
