remo encore: great sounding heads at a great price!
remo encore ambassador heads feel a little thicker/heavier than regular ambassadors and produce a rounder sound, with less pronounced highs and overtones. great sustain.
i have used them mostly in low and mid tunings, but they never really open up in the highs as much as regular ambassadors do. i like both; it’s a matter of context and preference.
they’re great as reso heads too, and when it comes to kick: at this price it sure hurts less to cut a hole in one of these, if that’s what you have to do :)
no complaints whatsoever in term of durability - i’m not exactly a heavy hitter, but they do seem sturdy enough.
definitely worth a try - i just love these!

Impressed
I'm impressed on the sound I can get from it.
I tune it kind of middle tension, I tune the reso as much as I can, and I let the snare wires a bit loose. In this way I get a short, mid-pitched and powerful snare sound, which I love.
I never tried the Ambassador made in USA (and I'll do it), but so far I feel that I can recommend it to everyone.

Bluffant
Bon, je savais que je ne rencontrerais pas la qualité des peaux Remo plus chères que j'ai l'habitude d'utiliser, mais cette entrée de gamme m'a totalement séduit : le son est vraiment bon, la robustesse est là, et l'illusion est parfaite. Je rachèterai sans hésiter.

Thanks Remo!
Im very satisfied with a tone, sustain and respond of this head, and in Encore series in general!
This one is proud little brother of Ambassadors, and can serve very well in the times of need...
Thumbs up!

It sings nicely
I'm using this on a 14x3.5 stainless steel piccolo snare with die-cast rims. It pretty much has the ambassador sound and I'd take it over Evans G1. On a shallow drum with die-cast rims it has just the right amount of overtones. Damping is optional, but not mandatory. A fine, sensitive drumhead.
