Editorial Review Powerstroke 3 Coated Bass Drum Head with Black Dot 24 in. The Remo Coated Powerstroke 3 features a thin underlay at the outer edge of the head to subtly dampen unwanted overtones. Coated P3 heads are best known for use as a resonant bass drum head. This creates perfect balance of mid and low tones that has quickly made Coated Powerstroke 3 one of Remo's most preferred bass drum heads.
