After several months of using Evans St Dry and G2 coated on my kit. I've decided that 2 ply heads are not for me, it was a great experiment in the name of saving money on head changes. But not worth the sacrifice in sound. I'm back to G1 clears on the toms, coated G1 on snare's, and the EMAD stays on the kick, I love it. I've them tuned up beautifully now! :)

Hey Greg,

How were two ply heads to save money on head changes?

You are not hitting that hard, are you?

Cliff, my goal was to change out the heads once a year, but the 2 ply heads didn't do anything for me sound wise. I don't hit hard at all, I'm getting too old for it. :lol:
