Head 12'' Nylon
€15.50*
Single-layered 12 “ nylon head by Contemporânea for repinique, caixa, repique de mão, 12'' timbal etc.A once and for all drum head! 12'' heads is probably the most commonly used size for repiniques and caixas, which is why a 12'' head belongs in every sambista emergency spare part set! Last but not least this head has top sound qualities and can be used on both sides of your caixa or repinique (batter- and resonance head approved). Single-layered nylon heads are the thinner standard version by Contemporânea and are very responsive with a clear, light sound and intentionally rich in overtones due to their vibrating stronger than thicker heads. This head is a standard option for 12'' repiniques and caixas. You will notice that between putting a new head on and playing on it for a while the sound will change positively. A new head might sound a bit whiny in the beginning, but as soon as it gets used to the tension and the rim of the shell, the sound will settle. As usual - good things are worth waiting for. A thin nylon head is suitable for you if you like the clear and light sound and if you want a head with an easy response.Make sure to have a spare single layer 12'' in your gig bag, like this you have a spare for both sides of your instrument and are prepared for all eventualities!
Head 13'' Nylon P2
€8.00*
13“ 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.
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.
Head 12'' Nylon P3
€9.20*
12“ P3 head (P3 - 250 Micron: 0,25mm) - IZZOClassical caixa and repinique head
Thick or thin?P3 heads are thicker (P2='grossa'; P3='supergrossa') than P2 heads, which is why they sound more saturated, they have less overtones and transmit an almost matt tone because they vibrate less than a thin head. The thickness of a head has only little influence in how long it may last. A thicker head might last a few gigs longer, but the difference is probably not to be mentioned.
Resonance head or batter head?P3 heads are ideally used as batter heads. You can combine a P3 batter head perfectly with a P2 resonance head.

Hide head 10'' - aluminium rimInformation about mounting hide heads:Natural heads tend to twist when they are unmounted since the manufacturers moisten the skins before pulling them over the wooden or aluminium rim. So when they dry again, the head twists. When leaving the high humidity in Brazil and arriving to the dry European climate (low humidity and room heating), the heads tend to twist even more. Please notice that this is no damage or irregularity! Before mounting the head please moisten (not soak!) it carefully with a kitchen sponge etc, pull it over the drum shell and then let it dry slowly in the air! Don't force dry a hide hed with a heater, hairdryer or in the sun as it will make the head brittle and prone to tear!
Information for hide heads on aluminium rims:Natural heads tend to twist when unmounted, especially with when temperature and humidity changes. This can happen as well with heads on wood rims as with skins in aluminium rims. The aluminium hoops are grouted in a way that leaves a small open joint gap. This is not a defect nor a broken seam, but a tiny tolerance which is there on purpose so that the head can expand or tighten without damaging the hoop or the head when air moisture changes. If you have received a twisted head with an open gap on the aluminium rim, then that is quite normal and with only a few steps the head will easily fit on your instrument shell: Slightly moisten the head, wait a couple of minutes, then fit it on the shell and put your instrument back together loosely. Only put tension on the head once it has dried completely and in a natural way; this will usually take overnight. As soon as there is tension on the head, wrinkles and the twist will disappear and the head will easily adjust to the shape of the instrument shell. If you have any questions about mounting a head, please contact us.
Purchasing replacement heads:If you are buying a replacement head for your instrument, we advise that you get a head from the same brand as your instrument as they should fit without any trouble. If you buy a head from a different brand, you might find that the fit slightly differs or even doesn't go on the shell well or at all. Please understand that we cannot offer warranty in this case.
Hide head 12''

Head 12'' goat skin - aluminium rim, Timbra
Information about mounting hide heads:Natural heads tend to twist when they are unmounted due to different air humidity and temperature. When you are ready to put the head on your instrument and see that it is twisted, moisten (not soak!) the head carefully with a kitchen sponge, then put it on a flat surface and push the drum shell in the rim from above. Put your drum loosely back together and wait until the head is dry before putting any tension on it. Let it dry slowly in the air (best overnight), don't use heaters, hairdryers and don't leave it in the sun as it will make the head brittle and prone to tear.

Head 10'' Super Nylon
€16.20*
Fibreglass coated 10'' supernylon superior head for caixa, repinique and pandeiro - ContemporâneaDurable, strong, thick drum head with rich mids; fibreglass coating filters out unwanted overtones and reflects a balanced, strong sound. Supernylon heads are made of a foil 32% times thicker than standard heads and have a special fibreglass coating on the underside producing a specific sound characteristic: reduced overtones, amplified mids, powerful sound. Super nylon heads are also particularly durable. Super nylon heads are always meant to be superior heads (batter heads), as they vibrate less due to their thick foil and their coating and they are therefore not suitable as resonance heads.Good to know:Give your head some time to settle! You will notice that there is a lot of strange sounds going on when you put on a new head. At first, a new drum head might sound a bit squeaky, until it gets used to the tension and the rim, it will stretch and eventually settle nicely onto the rim and into the hardware. In short - give it some time! A new head needs a few rehearsals until it sounds really good. A super nylon head is suitable for you if you like rich, strong and overtone-poor sound and you are looking for an especially durable head.

Head 12'' Super Nylon
€20.80*
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.
Head 08'' Nylon GP3

8“ GP3 bacurinha / pandeiro head (P3 - 250 Micron: 0,25mm) - GOPEGP3 heads are thick, single-layered synthetic heads with a saturated sound, medium bass character and very little overtones. They produce a full, strong and almost matt tone due to their thickness and vibration behaviour - thick heads vibrate less than than thin heads. A special feature of the GP3 heads is the distance between the aluminium rim and and the surface of the head which is larger, compared to other brands, meaning that the head will settle well on your instrument shell straight away.Resonance head or batter head?GP3 heads are ideally used as batter heads. For a resonance head, a thinner option will vibrate stronger and in combination with a GP3 batter head produce a nicer sound.Take some time:The life career of a head begins with the moment you put it on your drum for the first time.
