Description
The Evans RealFeel 12 Inch Practice Pad is a dependable, quiet solution for drummers who want to keep their hands in shape anywhere, anytime. Sized to mirror a standard snare, it offers familiar spacing and feel, making it ideal for beginners building fundamentals, returning players rebuilding technique, and working drummers warming up before a set. The responsive surface delivers satisfying rebound without excess volume, so focused practice is possible at home, in rehearsal rooms, or backstage. Whether you are learning rudiments or refining finesse, this pad provides a comfortable, consistent platform that helps you play longer with better control and less fatigue.
Built around a solid wooden base with a single, grey gum rubber surface, the RF12G balances realistic stick response with a controlled, low noise character. The 12 inch size sits perfectly in a standard snare stand basket for a natural playing height, while the octagonal shape adds stability and a classic practice look. Compared with basic Student 1 pads, this model offers a larger playing area, more lifelike rebound, and a sturdier, longer lasting construction. The non slip backing keeps it steady on tables or drum heads, so you can practise confidently wherever you set up.
For UK tuition and school use, the RealFeel pad is a practical choice that supports graded study, ensemble rehearsals, and quiet warm ups without disrupting lessons. Teachers appreciate its reliable feel and durability, while students benefit from a surface that encourages correct technique and dynamic control. At home it is easy to store and quick to deploy, encouraging regular practice routines. Offering excellent value across term time and beyond, the RF12G bridges beginner and intermediate needs with a pad that feels authentic, travels well in a backpack or stick bag, and stands up to daily use in classrooms, practice rooms, and on the go.
