[melvin]

hey my reso snare head just got busted. and i've been using the stock batter + reso for quite some time already. now im looking at getting new drumheads to replace the old ones.

so whats a good drum head for a 14" snare? reso and batter haha. and im only looking at evans cause i have discount for them. but hit me with anything haha.

Wow...so many choices...


Anyway..I will choose Evans EC2 Coated...G1 for the reso...

I'd go with the HD Dry batter with a Hazy 300 reso.

Quite standard, works for me. I've got a spare PC Reverse Dot and an ST Dry. Might sell to get Remos, but will keep them for the time being.

Depends on your use...

Batter Head:
More jazzy & resonant -- Evans Coated EC-1 (as Blofeld would recommend), or Coated EC-2.

Tighter & Drier -- Evans Reverse Dot, or Hydraulic

Resonant Head:
Evans G1 clear

My 2 cents

What's your current drum, anyway? Personally on different drums I'll use different heads, although my general multi-purpose solution is either Evans G2 Coated or Remo Coated Ambassador on batter, and Remo clear diplomat or Hazy 300 or equivalent for the reso. I guess that's something that *should* work on most stuff around, an all-rounder.
