Nappa or korino heads are multi-ply synthetic layers of artificial leather and nylon. The attack is reduced by the additional layer and the sound becomes warm and bassy. Too many korino heads in a bloco or a bateria will blur the sound. Korino heads sound best when used on a few surdos, but not all. Korino heads are only suitable as batter heads.
The construction of the korino on top of the nylon head layer reacts quite sensitively to surdo beaters that are too hard. If the beater head is too hard, the top korino layer will dent and no longer lie flat on the bottom nylon layer, making it unable to produce a consistent tone and causing the head to break. We therefore recommend using only soft or medium-hard but always well-padded beaters on korino heads.
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!
Customer reviews for "Head 16'' napa / korino"
"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.
