Evans Drumhead (S08H30)

I've been a drummer/percussionist for most of my life and I've tried several different heads.I was a Remo guy, an Aquarian guy, and even an Attack guy for a short while but all of these heads, though great seemed to be missing something, or have caveats that I had to live with. If I wanted a big sound, I couldn't have great projection, if I wanted great projection, I couldn't have bottom end and if I wanted durability, I had to sacrifice tone. It wasn't until I saw a great local band with a HUUUUUGE kick drum sound, that I found out after asking, "try these Evans heads". I did, and I haven't looked back since. These are some of the best, most easily tuned and durable heads you can get. I use these genera heads in combination with G2 batter heads and I get an awesome, huge tone with just the right amount of attack and bottom end. (tuned correctly of course.)This has been my go to bottom snare head since the 90s. If you want versatility and ability to get a nice fat snare sound, pair this up with some Pure Sound thirty strand snares and you'll have one of the best snare tones around and still have a nice sensitive, reactive snare drum.

Best sound available - I have used both Remo & Evans over the years (since 1970) but ALWAYS find Evans heads to be easier to tune, better sounding, and a more durable solution.On my Ludwig Keystone kit (oak & maple shells) & Pearl Export Select kit I use coated G2's on top, clear G1's on reso side (toms), EMad on batter and reso on bass drums, coated ST on snare batter, Hazy 300 on reso side. (wood snare 2.3mm hoops)On my Pearl Masters Series Mahogany kit - clear EC2's on top, Genera resonant (reso side) on toms, EMad on both sides of bass drum, coated G2 snare bater, hazy 300 reso side (wood snare) (all hoops die cast) coated G1 snare batter with hazy 300 redo (metal snare, 2.3mm hoops).

Very durable.

Evans Drumheads are always quality. Reliable and trustable. I can't say the same for Remo or Aquarian.

Some people have written more extensive technical reviews than mine, but essentially, the 300 is an Ambassador clear challenger if that means anything; I prefer a Diplomat clear which is akin to the Evans 200. Of course it sounds great and improves even a so-so snare drum. The unexpected blessing was it was formed with the new 360 technology--a real plus--as was the batter head.I am rapidly becoming an Evans purist (sorry Remo).Buy it! If it sounds crummy, it's likely the drum or a "key to snare drum" error. Mating the Evans Power Center Reverse Dot and Puresound snares can also give it a nice boost.P.S. The boxes had all of this really great drum head info to buy more stuff (silly, I know).Just do it!

Had to buy this as a replacement head for a snare I got at the flea market. I will say the drum works perfectly now because of it. Evans hasn't let me down yet so extra kudos🤘

I actually thought was the one for the top but when it reached I realize it was the one for the bottom. Correct fit however

Llegó en una semana a Colombia, todo ok, bien protegido y el producto de buena calidad.

Tengo un djembe africano, y el parche viejo era casi igual, plastico transparente y suena como los tambores Egipcio, puro dumbek. Pero este parche Evans salio mejor de lo que antes. Este parche es muy flexible y fuerte, puedes estirarla mucho, aun es delgado. Requerde que los djembes africanos se estira hasta el maximo, y yo lo hico con el Evans tambien. Sus tonos son excellente. Los altos (la orilla) son muy abierto, agudo y corto. Puedes tocar delicado o fuerte, todo translada con mucho detalla y presencia. Los bajos (en el centro) levanta las laminas de la casa, son puro subwoofer. Es por su elasticidad!Ahorita si creo en la tecnologia EVANS!!

Product arrived in perfect condition and quickly
