Remo 12" Emperor Clear

Remo 12" Emperor Clear

The Remo 12" Emperor Clear Drum Head is a true classic in the drumming world—trusted by countless players for its powerful attack, balanced sustain, and rock-solid durability. If you’re after a tom or snare head that can handle energetic playing while still delivering a full, musical response, the Emperor Clear has earned its reputation for very good reason.

Constructed using Remo’s renowned dual-ply design, this head combines two layers of clear film to create a focused, punchy sound with excellent projection and controlled resonance. Compared to single-ply heads, the Emperor Clear offers added depth, durability, and attack, making it especially popular with drummers playing louder styles or simply wanting a fuller, more authoritative tone from their kit.

On a 12" drum, the Emperor Clear produces a bright, articulate attack with warm low-mid body and a nicely controlled sustain that avoids excessive ringing. The clear finish gives the head extra presence and definition, helping your toms cut clearly through live mixes while still retaining a rich, musical feel in studio settings.

One of the reasons drummers continue coming back to Emperor Clears is their incredible versatility. They tune beautifully across a wide range, delivering tight modern punch at higher tensions or deep, aggressive body when tuned lower. Whether you’re playing rock, pop, punk, metal, funk, indie, or fusion, they adapt effortlessly.

At Musicmaker, the Emperor Clear is one of those dependable all-round drum heads we constantly recommend because it simply performs night after night, session after session.
