What’s more, unique slots in the drumhead’s 5″ diameter let the head flex, keeping it open at the edges and free to vibrate at any dynamic level. On the underside, the dot on the Evans Power Center Reverse Dot is out of the way for brushes.
Whether you play rock, jazz, country or metal, the Evans Genera HD Dry Snare Drum Head is a true all-purpose choice.
