Drumhead Anatomy Finish The finish of the drumhead is most often thought of purely from an aesthetic point of view, though there are often sonic characteristics that go hand-in-hand with specific finishes. Coated or Frosted finishes are said to add warmth to the tone of the heads, whereas uncoated heads tend to have more definition or attack. Coated batter heads also offer a texture that is ideal for brushes. Though most people use clear reso-side (bottom side) heads, the use of a head with some form of coating will further reduce overtones and result in a warmer sound.
