Evans Genera HD Dry Snare Drum Head - 14 Snare Drum Head - Featuring Vent Holes to Control Sustain & Tighten Sound - Overtone Control - Coated with 2 Plies - 14 Inch

Sounds great, I like the dryness of it, sounds more like a clap instead of a snap. Overall impressed with the quality and sound. And it's stain resistant too so it doesn't get too dirty.

Excellent, dry sound. Tight sustain. I love it!

Great product would purchase again

Easy install and sound great!

This head has the exact sound I like. It is certainly dry, so that may be something to consider. Very little ring or overtones, even without Moon Gel.

I was skeptical at first, since the dry snare sound I have tried to achieve over the years seemed elusive at best, having tried about every external add-on that I could rig up without total success.But I have been using Evans heads almost exclusively lately- so when I saw this HD Dry and its claims - I bought it.I must admit - I am amazed at the sound the head puts out without the need for coaxing.I installed it nice and tight all the way around and it was instantly my favorite snare.I do still use a mylar trim ring on top, and my bolt-on muff under the batter remains unchanged. But the sound is the best I have ever heard on my kits. I use a 14” DW Performance Series as my primary snare - but I am certain that whatever brand you favor - this head will make it sound better than you previously imagined- and without any effort - other than bolting it on using the same process typically used to install a head.This head will make THE difference! It truly is the ultimate dry tight attack - universally loved in the studio and live on the stage - mic it or not!

Easy to install and tune. Sounds great. Very snappy.

This snare head has the best quality sound and durability than any other head I have ever used. With the vent holes it allows for the sound to be consistent around the head. Tune it tight or lose you will get the sound you are looking for.
