Introducing the Pinstripe X, a Japan-exclusive head that's a refined version of the classic Pinstripe model, perfect for rehearsal studios, live music venues, and clubs! ●Compared to regular pinstripe, a 0.5 mil thicker film is used to improve durability while preventing the sound from changing drastically. A slightly tinted hazy film is used to increase the "sense of attack" that would otherwise be masked by the thicker film. *Hazy film is characterized by its ability to produce a clearer attack than the transparent film normally used in pinstripe. ●The 14-inch and 16-inch models used for floor toms, etc., are equipped with a thin clear dot on the back, which controls the sound and improves ease of use. It suppresses overtones to a certain extent, making it easier to tune in a limited time. Incidentally, the dot on the back is provided to allow for a consistent feel and compatibility with heads of sizes that do not have a dot. *The 10, 12, and 13-inch models do not come equipped with clear dots. ●This model has a sweet, thick sound that is highly acclaimed and is directly descended from the Pinstripe, so it is a model that we would like many drummers to try out as a new sound option. ★10/12/13 = 7.5-mil hazy x 2 ply with dampening agent (edges) ★14/16 = 7.5-mil Hazy x 2 ply + 5-mil Clear Dot (bottom side) with Dampening Agent (edge) *Normal Pinstripe is 7-mil clear x 2 ply with dampening agent (edges) *Image is for illustrative purposes only.
