The Aquarian Hi-Velocity Black Snare Drum Batter Head is designed for heavy hitters, plain and simple. If you hit your drums hard, this head will get you a tight, punchy sound without too many overtones, and it is designed to hold up for a long time.
This head is made of two plies of extra-warm film, which helps smooth out some of the unpleasant poppiness heavier playing can sometimes cause. A Power-Thin Dot in the center of the drum head also helps ensure it will last those extra few months, saving you time, money, and effort.
The Safe-T-Loc metal hoop holds the film securely and evenly, helping to prevent any pulling that heavy playing or re-tuning can cause, and it helps the head get an even seat on any bearing edge.
The texture coating isn't too thick, meaning your drum will still speak with a wide response, but it helps warm up the tone overall, with the center dot helping the coating hold up against long-term, accurate playing.
