If you punish your snare drum with a heavy hand, you'd better make sure your snare drum head can keep up. The Evans ST Snare Drum drum head is most certainly up to the task. How do we know? Because "ST" stands for "Super Tough". The Evans ST Coated is made from two plies of 7.5mil film, giving it warmth, durability, and a serious attack. Considering its thickness, this head is relatively responsive, especially when you tune it up to medium or high tension. At the Drum Center of Portsmouth, we know all about rocking at maximum volume. If you also like to rock, the Evans ST Coated is a superb choice!.
