Remo Drum Shells: 'Acousticon' | Remo

What kind of wood are your drum-shells made out of? - Acousticon refers to Remo's shell material used on the majority of world percussion products that are produced in the Remo Inc. factory.It is made from multiple thin plies of 100% recycled wood-fiber materials, laminated under pressure into a solitary tubular structure. Each drum shell is impregnated with special resins to aid in leaving moisture out and then given a special 'acousticon' coating inside for optimal tone/acoustic qualities. Acousticon utilizes high technology in its construction perhaps more than any previous drum shell. It takes the best qualities of wood and betters them for incredible consistency allowing unparalleled pitch, timbre, and projection. The continuous, one-piece wrap of Acousticon makes for a denser, better-sounding drum. Because of its "uni-body" construction, there are no mismatched plies of wood, and all shells are constructed to exacting thicknesses, resulting in a sound with focus and articulation.

How do i get replacement parts for my old Remo drums? Do you still sell hardware for discontinued drums? Do you still offer replacement drumheads for discontinued drums? - Please provide as much detail on your request as possible...Remo drum model name if possible, and description/qty of the parts needed. You must provide photos of your drum model with a focus on the hardware type (lugs, tom arms, legs, brackets, etc) to ensure the accuracy of the parts needed as some different model drums may share the same components depending on the time of production and generation of the product in question. We do manage to keep most parts available for purchase after an item has been discontinued. However, once stock is depleted, we can no longer offer the option and you may need to retrofit generic parts as the last option. Original drumheads used on discontinued drums are often available ongoing, or an alternative may be available. If you simply need a drumhead replacement, please describe if possible. Upload all images with your inquiry to support@remo.comOnce product #'s are provided, please place the special order with your local or online retail store.
