Product Description
Evans Orchestral Staccato Concert Snare Drum Batter Heads are crafted from a single 7.5 - mil film ply. This unique construction delivers an open and airy sound, making the drums highly sensitive in the concert hall. You'll experience a moderate attack, long - lasting sustain, and a rich, full tone. The Staccato model comes with a 2 - mil internal overtone control ring. It reduces unwanted ringing and simplifies the tuning process, while also improving focus and articulation. Key features include a 14 - inch diameter, single ply design, 7.5 - mil film, open and airy sound, moderate attack, long sustain, and a 2 - mil overtone control ring.
Using this Evans orchestral drumhead is a breeze. First, make sure your drum is clean and in good condition. Place the drumhead carefully on the drum, aligning it properly. Start tightening the tension rods evenly around the drum. You can do this a little at a time, going around the drum in a star pattern, to get an even sound. As you tune, listen for the right balance of attack and sustain. Remember, the overtone control ring helps with tuning, so don't be afraid to adjust it to your liking. When it comes to maintenance, keep the drumhead clean. You can use a soft, dry cloth to wipe off any dust or debris after each use. Avoid getting the drumhead wet, as this can damage the film. If you're not using the drum for a long time, store it in a dry and cool place. And always handle the drumhead gently to prevent any tears or scratches.
