12 in Evans clear G2

I would guess that the G2`s on the resonant side would have a lot to do with the deadness.

If we encounter this issue overseas, we'll work with the local distributer to get a replacement sent. Your best course of action from the start is to go to the dealer that you purchased the head from.

In regards to the problem developing over time, this depends on the environment that the head is in, how much it moves around (friction building up static charge), etc.

I don't know if I'm buying this "static charge" thing. I've gotten alot of dead heads over my 37 year span of playing. Mostly Remo, some Evans. Is it really "static charge" or something more? Why do some heads do it and others don't? How exactly would this happen after thre head leaves the factory? If every head that goes out the door is susceptible to this happening, that would be one heck of a crap shoot and nerve racking as a drum head manufacturer. If "static charge" is really the culprit and it can happen to heads after they leave the factory, I'm surprised that this isn't even more widespread. How can it be prevented? I read on here before that there was something you could do involving submersing the head in water to correct the problem and there was a video that was to follow showing this procedure. Any thoughts?
