Super Nylon high-tec head 12‘’ laminated with Dupont Nomex fibre
Medium-thick head made of Dupont Nomex fibre for extra dry, crisp sounds and few overtones. Haptically, the head can be described as somewhere between a coated and a glass fibre head. The surface is slightly textured and feels a bit like paper, which filters unwanted vibrations and takes out overtones. The skin is thin enough to convey nice mids and is suitable for the usual Brazilian street Samba and Samba Reggae as well as for modern styles and funky grooves.
Nomex paper from Dupont is a heat-resistant, flame-retardant material used in high-performance applications such as electrical insulation and protective clothing.
Customer reviews for "Head 12'' Super Nylon"
"Gope"
GOPE is a family-run business from the area around São Paulo. Today the company is being run in its third generation by the grand daughter of the firm´s founder.
The brand GOPE has been producing drums and smallpercussion instruments for over 50 years now. When the company was founded, there was already a small workshop in which drumsets were manufactured.
In 1962, the production of the typical Samba instruments began, iniciated by Humberto Rodella, the son of the founder. The company kept growing and after several relocations in São Paulo, GOPE finally found the right place for building a large production hall in Embu Guaçu, a suburb of São Paulo.
Since then GOPE produces in Embu Guaçu everything from the Agogô to the Zabumba, a wide range of percussion instruments, and only recently also various wind instruments.
GOPE has always kept in close touch with the musicians. The ideas and proposals for modifications that they received from many of those contacts, have always had much influence in the development of new instruments and improvement of production.
