## Overview

The Remo FD0514-00 14-Inch Fiberskyn Diplomat Drum Head features a 7.5 mil poly-spun Mylar single layer that produces warm, resonant tones with excellent sustain. Designed for snares and tom-toms, its Fiberskyn 3 textured surface is optimized for sticks, mallets, and brushes, making it the industry standard for jazz and orchestral percussion. Lightweight and durable, it delivers a balanced sound spectrum favored by professional drummers.

## Description

The Fiberskyn diplomats have warm tones due to a poly-spun fiber single layer of 7. 5 mil Mylar film. They're known for their warm full tones, resonance, and sustain. The Fiberskyn 3 Diplomat surface is excellent for sticks, mallets and brushes. F3 Diplomat heads produce a balanced spectrum of sound for snares and tom-toms. They are best known as the industry standard for jazz and orchestral applications.

Review: Beautiful and Excellent Sound Quality - I sanded down, polished the hardware, and re-stained an old 80's Pearl floor tom. I then ordered one of these as the batter head. It sounds great, very warm, rich, full, and thick sound, really bringing out the full breadth of the timbre that the drum can produce. I personally would go for another head with a little more light and dry sound for a studio recording setup, but I plan to use this drum for occasional drum circles or casual playing with some velvet mallets and I think the sound it produces will be perfect for that application. I would also consider this head great for concert percussion applications.
Review: Drum head - Great drum head. Performs as advertised!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this be used for a djembe?**
A: I think it's going to sound good in a djembe . The problem is that they are made to fit in a tom or snare drum . I am not sure how it's possible to fit them into a djembe

**Q: Does it includ a bag?**
A: No.  Just the head in the normal Remo box.

**Q: I am totally new at this. I thought it was the entire drum. What does this go onto? I was hoping for a 2" rim with it.**
A: It is a hand drum (like a conga) that can be mounted on a stand. I have a Meinl Percussion Stand with Full Height Adjustability-NOT Made in China-Arched Rubber Bracing for More Stability, Adapts to Multiple Djembe Sizes, 2-Year Warranty

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful and Excellent Sound Quality

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Drum head
*by M***. on September 11, 2025*

Great drum head. Performs as advertised!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Decent for brushes; great sound
*by G***K on May 2, 2016*

This is a good head for brushes. I was hoping it would have a little rougher surface, but it seems that it will last longer as a brush head than coated heads which can lose their roughness if used for stick playing which smooths the head down. The sound is fantastic and I was able to tune it so that it would compliment the sound of my tom-toms when playing without snares. It gives a perfect sound for a drum solo when I'm changing dynamics a lot and trying to sound like a tympanist. I am looking forward to trying out the other heads in the Fiberskyn line and overall I feel that the sound from this head makes my snare drum sound better than ever before.
