The ultimate snare sound
Finally a snare head that you can abuse and will also get rid of that horrable high end ring. My Pearl Reference snare is now alive, Everyone will notice the sound so buy it and try it, you wont go back to any other head.

Too Loud & Clashy
I Had Recently Bought A New Snare Drum, A Pearl Limited Edition & I Didn't Care Too Much For The Remo Head That Came With It. I Purchased This Head, Concerned About The Holes Around The Edge of The Head. Switched It Out With This Evans ST Dry, Tuned It The Way I Like It, & Started Playing Around With It For A Bit. I Thought It Sounded Too Loud, And Clashy, Like It Overpowered The Rest of The Drum Set. I Loosened It, & Tried It Again, Still Too Loud. I Replaced It Back To The Original Head That Came With The Drum & It Sounded So Much Better. I Wouldn't Recommend This Drum Head, Unless You Like The Loud & Clashy Sound of A Snare Drum.

I was skeptical because I typically play double-ply heads, especially on the snare. I tend to be a heavy hitter. This head not only sounds great, but the attack is perfect!
I like this better than the HD Dry Head

Great Snare Head

I've worked recording and live for many years. This head ISN'T only for hard hitters. It cuts the overtones but still gives great tone and tuning versatility. No need for moon gel or damper. I use them on a Tama brass, a Walord bubinga and a pearl studio masters. GREAT SNARE HEAD!

I'm 48, playing since I was 14. Life never gave me too much opportunity to upgrade my gear, but I'm starting to now and doing my homework. I hit hard and heavy. Always hated hearing a twang or overtones when I hit snare. This took it all away. Got a great Black Friday price. This is crisp and clean and will be noticed. Nice reaction. Durable and haven't seen a hit mark on it yet. I won't try to sound technical like most people leaving reviews, so for the working class guy who plays out with his band 6-8 times a year I'm loving it so far. I have 1 gel on the skin but no muffling ring. Good stuff
I would buy this product exclusively!

I just refurbished all my drums, added the Evans heads to it, and they sound great! It's a great drumhead!
Excellent Snare head

Tuning was uniform and smooth across each lug. Final tone sounded excellent on my DW design series 14. I would buy this snare head again.
