The Evans 14″ Genera Dry Coated head is engineered for drummers who want a crisp, focused tone with minimal overtones. It combines a single coated ply with a built-in tone ring and venting system to deliver a dry, articulate sound that cuts cleanly, making it ideal for snare drums in studio or live settings. The coating adds warmth and stick feel while contributing durability. It’s versatile across genres—rock, pop, funk, jazz—where a tight, controlled snare presence is desired.
