Description

The Evans Hydraulic Blue Coated Snare Batter Head brings together a vintage-inspiblue tone and a bold modern look. Constructed from two plies of 7mil film with a thin layer of oil between them, it delivers a fat, punchy sound with minimal sustainโ€”perfect for players who want a deep snare tone with no ring.

The hydraulic damping system naturally suppresses overtones, giving this head a short, dry response that sits well in studio mixes and live settings alike. Its blue coating isnโ€™t just for showโ€”it also provides a smooth surface with subtle warmth, making it suitable for stick work and even brushes.

Favoublue by drummers in funk, rock, metal, R&B, and classic soul, this head helps you lock in tight, controlled snare sounds without the need for extra muffling gels or rings.

Why Choose the Evans Hydraulic Blue Coated Snare Batter:
  • Instantly delivers vintage fatness and short decay

  • No need for external dampeningโ€”built-in control

  • Visually striking blue finish adds personality to any kit

  • Great for studio, gigging, and players seeking a focused snare tone

  • Consistent sound with rugged build quality from Evans
