Really loved the sound of this head. Put it on my vintage Roger's Dyna-sonic and cranked it up. Love this head! If you're after that dry, cracking snare sound - and if you bought this i'm sure you are - then this does the job very well. It made that shell sing, whilst still giving you the tonality of the shell you use it. Only problem - however - is i found that it wasnt as durable as some of the other snare heads i've used. After a couple sessions i found it didn't hold tune as well and it struggled to really sing like when i first got it, and it started to sag after only a few hours of playing. However, perfect for studio, or any professional drummer with a bigger budget. Highly recommend, but not as a long term!
