14“ P2 head (P2 - 190 micron: 0,19mm) - IZZO
 
Thin or thick?
P2 heads are thinner (P2='grossa'; P3='supergrossa') than P3 heads, which is why they sound lighter, they have more overtones and transmit sound easier because they vibrate stronger than a thick head. The thickness of a head has only little influence in how long it may last. Some percussionists play a thin head just as long as a thicker one.
 
Resonance head or batter head?
14'' P2 heads are suitable for both sides of your charuto or small surdo. For your timbal this is a good option, too. For 14'' caixas or snare drums with snare wires, a thinner resonance head will be the better solution.
Take some time:
The life career of a head begins with the moment you put it on your drum for the first time. Each time you tune it, the head will fit itself more comfortably onto the rim of shell being the base for the head. Also in terms of sound, time has an effect on every head. New heads often sound a bit whiny when freshly fitted onto the drum. But after a short break-in time and regular playing, the sound will quickly improve. A new head also will lift the rim higher. Each time you tune your drum, the head will sit itself lower down on the base and the rim can settle.
In short:
New head - high rim, whiny sound.
After a break-in time - low rim, nice sound.
Note about spare parts:

We recommend that you always purchase spare parts of the same brand as your instrument to ensure fit and function. We cannot assume any warranty for different-brand combinations. If you are looking for a spare part that you cannot find on our site, please contact us!

Izzo

Hochwertige Instrumente für Rio Samba und Samba Reggae, die vor allem im Schulbetrieb beliebt und bewährt sind!

Seit einigen Jahren ist IZZO unter den Topmarken brasilianischer Instrumentenbauer.
Einst kamen aus dem Hause IZZO aus São Paulo eher einfache Percussion Instrumente, die in Brasilien auf Grund ihres guten Preises viele Abnehmer fanden.
Dann begann IZZO, die Standards ihrer Sambainstrumente beständig anzuheben, und so wuchs die Firma zu einem ernst zu nehmendem Hersteller mit einer breiten Palette sehr gut verarbeiteter Instrumente, der sich auch auf dem internationalen Markt einen Namen gemacht hat.

izzo

Ein besonderer Coup gelang IZZO mit der 2010 lancierten Top Marke TIMBRA. Die TIMBRA Instrumente wurden in enger Zusammenarbeit mit renommierten Percussionisten entwickelt. Das Ziel waren in Klang und Optik überzeugende, bühnentaugliche Instrumente. Besonders die Timbals, gleich ob aus Holz oder aus Aluminium, setzen mit ihren 16 Spannhaken, ausgefallener Gestaltung und tollem Klang neue Standards.

Heute ist IZZO gleichauf mit den großen, alt eingesessenen Traditionsmarken brasilianischer Sambapercussion.
