Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01What does reverse dot mean?
The reinforcing mylar patch is bonded to the underside instead of the top. You get the extra center durability and control while the playing surface stays fully coated.
02Will this work for brushes?
Yes. Because the dot is underneath, the top is uninterrupted coating, so brush sweeps stay even across the whole head.
03Is this the top or bottom head?
Top. It is the batter head you strike. The thin resonant snare-side head is bought separately.
04Does it kill the snare's ring?
It reduces overtones and tightens the attack rather than deadening the drum. Expect a more focused sound than a plain single-ply coated head.
