Description

The Evans G2 Coated Drum Head – 12 Inch is a versatile tom batter designed for drummers who want a balanced mix of warmth, attack and control. With a coated finish that brings out articulation and a focused sustain, it works across rock, pop, worship and studio settings. The 12 inch size drops straight onto most standard toms and rewards both light touch and heavier sticks. Whether you are upgrading a tired stock head or looking for a dependable all round voice on your rack tom, the G2 Coated delivers musical response at a wide range of tunings and holds its tone from rehearsal to the stage.

Built from two 7 mil plies, the G2 Coated combines strength with sensitivity, so it resists denting while still speaking clearly at lower dynamics. The textured coating adds grip for brushes and slightly dries overtones for a tidy, mix friendly note. Evans Level 360 collar helps the head seat evenly on the shell, making tuning faster and more precise with fewer frustrating dead spots. Compared with basic student single ply heads, you get a thicker, longer lasting film, improved tuning stability and a wider sweet spot, so your drum sounds consistent night after night with less need for extra damping.

For UK tuition and school use, this head is a smart fit. It tunes up quickly, keeps its pitch through busy lesson schedules and copes with shared kits that see regular stick work. Teachers will appreciate its controllable sustain that keeps classroom volume sensible, while students benefit from a responsive feel that rewards good technique. It represents strong value because the durable 2 ply build extends service life, reducing replacement costs over the academic year. Easy to install and compatible with popular tom brands, it suits home practice, graded exam preparation, concert band work and weekend gigs alike.

Features

Durable 2 ply coated construction

Two layers of 7 mil film deliver a strong, roadworthy head that resists dents and stretching while keeping a musical voice. The coated surface enhances stick definition and gently tames overtones, giving you a warm attack with controlled sustain that sits well in a mix.

Level 360 collar for easy tuning

The Level 360 collar helps the head seat evenly on the bearing edge, so tuning is faster and more accurate. Enjoy a wider usable range with smooth lug response, fewer dead spots and consistent tone across the drum, whether you prefer low, medium or high tension.

Versatile tone for multiple styles

From rock and pop to worship and education settings, the G2 Coated adapts effortlessly. It offers a focused note with just the right amount of overtone, responding well to sticks, mallets and light brushes, and pairs easily with common resonant heads for the sound you want.

Classroom and gig ready reliability

Built to handle busy practice schedules and regular performances, this head holds tuning well and maintains its feel over time. The controlled character helps manage volume in small rooms, while the robust film ensures dependable service on shared school kits and weekend gigs.
