Here's a handy head bundle from Evans and Sweetwater to kick-start your snare upgrade! The Evans UV1 brings the studio-standard single-ply batter head recipe into the 21st century. Its made from a single ply of 10-mil film for a familiar attack, sensitivity, and resonance. But unique to the UV1 is a UV-cured top coating that resists chipping, denting, and flaking. This adds extra miles to your brushwork, backbeats, and rimshots. Also included in this bundle is the Evans DADK Magnetic Drum Key. This key features a knurled knob for quick tune-ups and even head seating and ergonomic "winged" arms to give you extra purchase for those cranked soprano tones. What's really cool about this key is its magnetic, rattle-free design, which silently holds to an open tension rod as you play so that you'll always have a key when you need it.

A patented UV-cured coating and breakthrough 10-mil film give the Evans UV1 drumhead the kind of durability that drummers dream of. If you're tired of your coating wearing thin long before your head wears out, Sweetwater drummers recommend the Evans UV1. Like other leading coated heads, the UV1 is made from a single ply of 10-mil film for a good balance of sensitivity and tone. But it's made tough to resist wear from rimshots, buzzes, and swirls. The Evans UV1 also boasts Evans' Level 360 collar, which seats the head evenly along the bearing edge for better tone and tuning.
