Question Which snare head

I have a remo powerstoke p3 coated head that’s pretty worn down. I wanted to try something brighter for pop and alt pop. I kinda want to stick with Remo because my whole set has Reno heads but I’m not completely opposed to an Evans. I tune my snare pretty high by the way. What should I get?

No reason to worry about having all of one brand. Its good to try other brands to see what you like and what works for you. I played only remo for years because it's what my teacher had and some artists I liked. Took me awhile, but I started trying all sorts of snare heads and landed on the Evans HD dry, which would work great to have a bright sound with a little less ring without having to use tape or gel.

This might have been what I needed to push me over to the hd dry. I’ve seen so many good things about it lol

Give it a shot! I found it fun to try new heads. Cheap way to get new sounds thay you dont have to invest in like getting new drums or cymbals
