I have written a few times that I have tried probably every Evans head I could get my hands on and have experimented a ton. I was not getting the ring from my snare that I wanted. COB, Gretsch Hammered Brooklyn , 6.5 x 14. I love this drum as it very easy to tune, but with the Genera coated head it was a bit dead. So I dug into the semi-used head bin, and pulled out a Clear G-1 head that I normally use for tom resos. Amazing, it sounds great. Just enough crack and ring for my tastes. I'm not a heavy hitter, so no worry of breaking the head. Don't be afraid to play around.
