Remo Ambassador Renaissance Drum Head - Product Information
The Renaissance Ambassador heads are medium-weight heads made with a textured single ply 10 mil Mylar film to produce a warm open resonant sounds with a warm attack.
I have been using Remo Renaissance heads on my 1960s & 1970s Ludwig and Slingerland toms for several years now. They seem to have more elasticity then the standard coated Ambassador heads giving the a warmer sound with less stick hit sound. I have also used them on Roto toms.

Remo Renaissance - replacement head
Comments:
Got the Remo Ambassador Renaissance heads for the toms (13, 16 & 18) on both of my sets (practice set and gig set). Really like the sound, a little more controlled perhaps than a regular single ply rough-coat head, but still a pretty open/resonant sound.
But this purchase was a replacement. Kept having problems tuning/balancing the head on the mounted tom of my practice set. Finally realized that the head had pulled out of the hoop. And the head was still relatively new. ? I've been playing the drums for over 50 years, never had that happen before. Mostly used Ludwig heads. Hopefully, it was just a fluke. So far all of the other heads are fine. Will see.

These heads work well for just about anything
Comments:
I use the Remo Renaissance heads on concert bass drums, concert snare drums (with a thin Diplomat snare side head) and on Remo roto toms. I know folks who use them on drum set, especially for drum sets used in a variety of situations such as pit and church work. I have not tried that but would not be surprised if that was a good choice. I also use Diplomat snare side heads on the bottom of tom toms on a jazz drum set and Remo Tablatone heads on half of my roto toms.
