Part of the D’Addario family, the global leader in musical instrument accessories, the Evans brand is synonymous with quality and consistency. Decades ago, Evans was the pioneer of drumhead manufacturing and design, and today they are the innovators.

Designed, engineered and manufactured in the USA, Evans Genera HD Dry coated snare drum heads are made using two plies of film, a 5mil outer ply and a 7.5mil inner ply, that yields an aggressive rimshot and balanced response. Small precision-drilled vent holes around the edge of the drum head that eliminate stray harmonics, control sustain and tighten the sound, while a 2mil overtone control ring on the underside "floats" with the head, eliminating excessive overtones and further controlling sustain. HDD snare heads have a Level 360 collar allowing the head to seat itself properly, making it easier to tune and providing a wider tonal range.
