Remo s Snake Skin Tar is constructed using a SKYNDEEP® fixed drumhead pitched to produce the desired overtones that professionals listen for. The Snake Skin graphic is an actual image taken from an original animal skinned drum, and now can be reproduced without harming any animals. A light textured finish gives the drumhead a very real, natural feel that produces just right amount of overtones. Remo Tars not only look incredible, they sound amazing!
