Reliable, Durable Construction

Like all EVANS drum heads, the G1 Clear Batter is constructed to the highest standards using premium materials and innovative manufacturing processes. The 10-mil film provides durability and reliability through the rigors of practice, rehearsal and performance. The specially formulated film used in the G1 Clear Batter also provides maximum vibration, resonance and projection.

The Working Drummer's Choice

For drummers looking for a versatile, all-purpose batter head that provides a professional quality of tone for any musical application, the G1 Clear Batter is the ideal choice.

    I picked up Evan's G2's as well as a set of G1's to use for resonant heads. They provided the perfect complimentary tone to the G2's. I hit hard so I would NOT use the G1's for your batter head if you are a heavy hitter but If you play lighter or are using them as a resonant head this is an amazing option no matter what batter head you are currently using. Easy to tune, no dampening required.

    I typically use the clear G1s on the bottom of my toms. They pair great with almost any Evans batter head. Especially with the G2s, EC2s and UV1/UV2 batters.

    I ordered the 8" and 6" G1 heads to retrofit some early 70's Rogers bongos. I had Slingerland hoops to fit. The 8" worked great. The 6" didn't exactly fit inside the hoop. It may have fit in a standard triple flange hoop, but I tried an Ambassador and it worked. I don't think there'll be much difference in sound on a 6" drum.
