I love the sound of coated Remo's, but like several others on here, the coating was wearing off very, very quickly. I know this sounds made up, but I've put many new coated Remo heads on my drums the past several years and 99% of the time, the coating would wear away where the stick hits within MINUTES of playing. Yes, MINUTES.
Jump forward to this last batch. I just bought a set of coated Vintage Emperors and am shocked at how nice the coating still looks after WEEKS of playing.
The new set does have the new logos. I'm seriously wondering if they made some big changes that makes this coating last TONS longer? Maybe the batches I had before were bad, not sure.
But man, this is great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
