Best heads for rock and pop
These G2 Oil heads are fantastic. The double ply gives great durability and the oil coating really tames the overtones without needing extra muffling. Perfect for my live gigs.

Perfect upgrade for my starter kit
My cheap kit sounds like a pro setup now. Easy to tune and they hold their tune well even after heavy playing. Highly recommend for beginners upgrading their gear.

Durable for touring
I've been using Evans for years. These G2s last longer than single ply heads on the road. The oil coating helps reduce ring which is great for small venues.

Complete package deal
Getting the sticks and patch included saved me a trip to the store. The heads sound punchy and deep. Exactly what I needed for my 5-piece set.

Studio quality sound
Used these in a recording session yesterday and the engineer loved them. Very controlled sustain right out of the box. USA made quality is evident.

Great sound, fast shipping
Love the warm tone these produce. The included drumsticks are decent quality too. Only reason for 4 stars is I wished the bass drum patch was slightly larger, but it works fine.
Q: Are the drumsticks included suitable for heavy hitters?
A: The included sticks are standard 5A size, which are versatile for most styles. For extremely heavy hitting, you might prefer purchasing a dedicated heavier pair separately, but these are great for general use.
Q: Can these heads be used on maple shells?
A: Absolutely. EVANS G2 heads work excellently on maple, birch, mahogany, and other common shell materials, enhancing the natural warmth of maple woods.
Q: How do I apply the bass drum patch?
A: Simply clean the area on the batter side of the bass drum head where the beater strikes, peel the backing off the patch, and press it firmly onto the head. It protects the head from wear.
Q: Does this set include a head for the snare drum?
A: Yes, this complete set includes a matching G2 Oil Coated head specifically sized for the snare drum of a standard 5-piece kit.
Q: What is the warranty on these drumheads?
A: EVANS products come with a manufacturer's warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Please retain your receipt for any potential claims.
